What jobs are available to diasporas who choose to return to Somalia have open to them?

[Kamaaludeen Al Reewin]

I was wondering what jobs/careers are available to diasporas who choose to return back to the motherland. And how do those who return make an income and survive in Somalia?

If anyone has relatives who have went back or have went back themselves, feel free to share your experiences.

Private school teachers make a good amount or private tutors. They like English teachers that have been abroad from what I heard so try to get someone to put in a good word for you. Though some of the schools especially the one I went to everything was in Somali except for Arabic and English but I think now they made it more English focussed in the high ends ones.

Find a niche. Examine what people are in need of back home and try to supply that. I knew this one Adeero who had a trucking business who brought in everything from clothes, to food, and metal. Back when I was a kid it was opening up hotels and stuff. Now I think people are branching out. One business I've heard of was a playground for kids. Another one was this Eedo made a booming clothing textile business. I also knew this one couple who made a private school and this other couple who opened up a medical school. Another one opened up a dentistry clinic too.

Thanks that's informative. Something good is that the jobs available are starting to become numerous instead of the old opening up a hotel which was common back in the day.

Don't lose hope in the country. It isn't as bad as you think bro.

 

[EyiPunter]

It counts in what skill you have and where you'd like to live. I personally would live in large city near beach. I noticed Somali cities need street sign. Maybe make a company where you get paid by the government and not the people or customers.

From what i've seen people who go back live a comfortable life, mainly because Somalia is not an expensive place to live in. Salaries are proportional to living expenses .

But also It depends on where you settle in if its a major city or smaller town or village.

I doubt any job pays decently , compared to what you’re used to.

Better off making money on the internet via remote work

What region are you from that they kill diaspora. Cuz I’ve never heard about it in my life.

 

[Atoosh]

Creating your own opportunity is better than infringing on job opportunities that exist. There's a robust and corrupt system of nepotism and money embezzlement in the NGO and Government sectors. I've known diaspora professionals who've left due to threats from the "establishment" who will not accept a straightforward person who attempts any reforms to the hiring process. Everything is based off disgusting clan quotas.

 

[Devilsadvocate]

From what I’ve seen, if you are educated in public health, you can get jobs from NGOs and the WHO, but you need to have at least two years of experience.

Idk about you and your family but I've had family that go back on a regular basis and nothing has ever happened to them. They have nice homes and what not too. Some even have ultimately decided to retire there too. Plus I lived back home for 2 years and nothing ever happened. The only thing that I was scared of was the hyenas at nighttime but otherwise I was like under 10 walking everywhere as the community took care of us and watched over us kids. First time I ever experienced freedom of movement and being able to do whatever I want without fear.
