Driving Jobs in Romania With Visa Sponsorship (Up to €300 a day)
Expats looking for a job in Romania can select from a number of industries. The country’s telecommunications and aerospace industries are quickly growing. Machine building, metals, textiles, and chemicals are important industries. During the first decade of the twenty-first century, these sectors drove the country’s economic growth, as manufacturers began to prioritize worldwide exports over domestic sales. In 2007, these industries accounted for around 35% of the country’s GDP.
Construction has risen to about 10% of GDP, making Romania more appealing to foreign real estate investors. The new road expansion is one among the key development projects now ongoing, as highlighted in our Romanian transportation section. Romanian vehicle production is also expanding, with local manufacturers like Dacia, whose Logan model was the best-selling new car in Central and Eastern Europe during the first half of 2007.
Romania is also ahead of the curve in Eastern Europe for IT, with approximately 64,000 IT specialists in 2013—the highest rate in Europe and sixth in the world in terms of overall population. As a result, there is much to offer foreign workers wishing to live in Romania.
Job Search in Romania
There are numerous opportunities to assist you in obtaining your dream career in Romania. National newspapers publish job listings; however, they are usually only in Romanian. However, The Diplomat, Bucharest, Nine O’Clock, and Ziarul Financiar all have English-language websites.
The British Council Romania (if you want to teach English), EURES (European Job Mobility Portal), and the National Agency for Employment (NAE) Romania (this site is in Romanian) are all job search websites that can help you get closer to your goal. The government is in charge of Romania’s labor agency, the NAE. There are numerous career opportunities accessible, but you will need to learn Romanian or figure out how to translate the page.
Applying for a job in Romania is very simple; however, some procedures differ slightly from those in other countries. If you’re drafting an application letter, make sure it’s typed, though some employers prefer handwritten letters. Although it might be helpful to bring your credentials to the interview, it is not typically necessary, and Romanian employers will now accept them in accordance with EU regulations. Job interviews, like any other, should center on why you are the best applicant for the job. Many occupations will require two interviews, and interviews are usually conducted in English.

Romanian Social Security
Romania has an excellent social security system. When a person reaches the regular retirement age and has paid the required amount of contributions, he or she is entitled to an old-age pension under the first pillar (public pension system). As of January 2015, the retirement age for men is 65, while for women it is 59 years and 7 months. In January 2015, the minimum contribution duration for both rose to 15 years.
A survivor pension can be paid to the spouse or child of a deceased person who was a first-pillar pensioner or otherwise entitled to a pension. If the survivor is a spouse, they must have been married for at least ten years, and all survivor pension recipients must be of retirement age.
Those who have lost at least half of their working capacity due to injury or disease are eligible for invalidity pensions. This covers occupational accidents and diseases. There is no minimum contribution period required to get an invalidity pension.
If you are unemployed involuntarily, you must file a claim for unemployment compensation within 12 months of being out of work. You must actively seek employment.
As an expat, you will be assigned a social security number, and your company will deduct contributions. However, if you relocate to another country and there are no social security agreements between Romania and that country, you may lose the payout on these.
