Hi all, we are a family of four currently living in Ireland but getting itchy feet and considering making a move to Malta. My husband works as a support engineer for a software company here in Ireland. I have had a browse of some job sites and it seems like having a second language is quite desirable. Does not having one impact greatly on your chances of securing employment? I was also wondering if it is possible to get a job without physically being in Malta? With two kids to look after there is no way we would dare move over without jobs in place. We could make it over at some point for maybe two weeks but with work over here longer than that just wouldn't be possible.
I know salaries will be less in Malta but does anyone know ballpark figures or websites that give average salaries for various jobs? I know there is some for Ireland but I can't find any for Malta.
Neither of us have ever worked anywhere other than Ireland before so this is all new to us so any tips on job searching would be greatly appreciated. Alternatively if you think the chances of him being able to get work in his field are slim to none we would appreciate someone pointing that out too
