´ó¿§¸£ÀûÓ°Ôº for your expat journey

. At the time, this was a pretty big deal, I had gotten my residency visa, but didn't have any career possibilities. I figured there was only one thing to do...go back to school, and that's exactly what I did. I worked at McDonalds for nearly three years starting my first year in country, once I felt my danish was ok-ish enough, I applied to Ã…rhus Teknisk Skole with a study course in Teknisk Design. It wasn't easy, actually it was hard, but with a little help from my friendsÂ
 I was able to successfully complete the school and finish with a 10 on my final exam. This gave me the tools I needed to get a career going, and 3 months after graduation, I had gotten a job at Crisplant designing baggage handling systems. That was 11 years ago, now Crisplant is called Beumer and things couldn't be better professionally. So if you come to Denmark and can't use your study/work history, it isn't necessarily a deal breaker, as long as you are willing to work and do what is necessary to contribute to society while furthering your own interest. The important thing is to be productive, work a crap job if necessary, working long hours with little prestige. You have to be willing to start at the bottom, lay a foundation, and then move forward. Be true to yourself, your family and Denmark, the rest will come in time.
