Barber job/work in norway?

Hi there, my name is James and I am 23 years of age and I am a barber from Dublin.

I am managing a barber shop at the moment and I have been a barber since the age of 17.

I am thinking about moving over to Norway, does anyone know if it is easy to get a job as a barber any where in Norway???

Better get there before winter, James! No man wants to get his hair cut in the cold weather; or even take his hat off.

Ha thanks. Yes well I was thinking of going in January-February 2013 maybe.
I have been there once before and i think i would like to try and live there.
I think the language barrier may be a problem as i do not speak Norweigan?
it is very hard to find job advertisements in Norway on the internet.:)

James. I do think the language barrier would be a problem in getting any specific job. When my son first went there, he worked at odd jobs wherever he could find them, for very low wages. I wouldn't recommend doing that in winter!

Norway has plenty of refugees from the Third World, who are tough competition.

Hello James.

Welcome to Expat.com! :)

So as to make it more visible, your post has been moved to the Norway forum.

These articles on Work/Labor market in Norway could help.

Thank you,
Aurélie
