Hospitality & Tourism. Job opportunities are available in the hospitality and tourism sectors, including theme parks, front desk at hotels and ski resorts, or bars and restaurants as hostess, wait staff, or kitchen help. 

Environmentalism. Argentinian geography draws many individuals interested in environmental areas, like conservation and sustainability, zoology and wildlife studies, or even those with a desire to work on local farms and ranches. 

Business. Jobs in Argentina’s business world are plenty, whether you are interested in finance, legal, and management, marketing and communications, consulting, or international relations, like working as a diplomat for the U.S. Department of State.

Fluency. Some jobs in Argentina require Spanish fluency, so be sure to check the guidelines when applying for positions.

Schedule. The regular workday is eight hours, after which employees receive time and a half. All salaried workers are given two to four weeks of vacation time per calendar year.

Punctuality. Even though time is a more flexible concept in Argentine culture as a whole, punctuality in business is still encouraged. But you should still be prepared to wait, especially if meeting with someone important.

Appearances & the Social Environment. Physical appearance is important, so be sure you are well groomed and looking your best while working abroad in Argentina. Even though it is common to preface business with small talk and develop personal relationships, the professional hierarchy still needs to be respected. Don’t get too friendly with superiors. Also, Argentinians maintain strong levels of eye contact, which may take time to get accustomed to.
