I don't have an experience, but if you speak fluent turkish you shouldn't have a problem.
Answer 2 :
Why would they want to? I bet there might be some firms that can give you work, but the salary will be very small.
Answer 3 :
i live in Turkey and there are a lot of accountants here.and 50% don't work because they can't find a job...stay in uk
Answer 4 :
as long as u speak the language, go for it, but expect a drop in your style of living, you wont earn as much money etc as you do here.
Answer 5 :
You could work there as long as you are fluent in Turkish language and currency.
Answer 6 :
you would need to check, but my mum moved to turkey a few years ago and she has always said that it is really difficult for an English person to get a job there as you can only take up a post that a Turkish person cannot do. i don't really know what this means but i think it is quite stringently regulated.
Answer 7 :
You should only be worried if you are going to work in an area in Turkey where terrorist may be operating as they do not discriminate between Englsih accountants and English soldiers when they are looking to implement their their plots. Accountants usually would get work once they are fully qualified and knowledgeable.
Answer 8 :
well, you have English language on your side. You can always teach English in a college, being taught English from a native English person is a good reason to employ you
