You will need to register with a job centre in order to find work in Italy. Job seekers must go to the job centre in the area where they are living.

Look on the [Ministero del Lavoro, della Salute e delle Politiche Sociali] Ministry of Work, Health and Social Policies website to find the Centro per l'impiego [Job Centre] nearest to your home.

The EURES service within each job centre provides information on job opportunities within the European Economic Area.

You can also contact private job agencies. More than 700 are currently authorised by the Ministry of Employment.

Many newspapers (dailies, weeklies and magazines) also publish regional and national classified job advertisements.
