That permanent residence permit is just for you to live and work in Italy. It doesn't mean you can travel freely like Italian citizens around other EU countries. You will still need a visa to travel to the UK or any other EU country. No you don't have the right to work in the UK. But if you get Italian citizenship you be able to move to the UK freely.

How do you find temporary work abroad? I want to work in Italy for the summer and I need some help
How do you find temporary work abroad? I want to work in Italy for the summer and I need some help.?
I've looked on multiple sites but all the job postings are in Italian (go figure). Are there any websites that help place people in temporary jobs, so they can learn about the culture and language? I've tried both monster and craigslist to no avail.

Get a passport and learn Italian.

E-mail information on a visa for Italy can be obtained at visas@itwash.org. To obtain work in Italy it is necessary to obtain both a residence permit and a worker registration card, rather than a visa. The Italian work permit application process must be begun by the company in Italy that hires the worker. The Italian work permit cannot be applied for by either the employee or a recruiting firm or a job agency. Italy as a country is a fun place to live. Do you prefer living in the city or the country side? It might be easier to find a job in the big cities since they a visited often by tourists. I suggest Rome, Venice, Pisa, Florence, and Milan. Italian would be nice to know, but everyone in the big cities speak English so you should be alright. Good luck to you!

You might try getting a job with the US gov. there although I'd guess there's a lot of competition for those jobs. You can find a current list of vacancies at: http://jobsearch.usajobs.opm.gov/jobsearch.asp?q=&lid=18193&lid=18197&salmin=&salmax=&paygrademin=&paygrademax=&FedEmp=N&sort=rv&vw=d&brd=3876&ss=0&FedPub=Y&SUBMIT1.x=82&SUBMIT1.y=11

Language will be your main problem. Most employees have to be proficient in Italian and at least two other languages. Mostly English and German, certainly here in the Veneto region. Many resteraunts may require knowledge of as many as six.

I am an Irishman in Italy for almost 6 years now. I speak Italian fluently. Italy is very beautiful, the food very good (though not as great as people will tell you it is...authentic Chinese is infinitely better), and the architecture spectacular. But, for positive things, I would stop there. The rest really is a collection of idiotic superfluities, egotistical hedonism, shallow thinking, the most expensive yet weakest education system in Europe (I am a teacher in a University here, and without doubt, Italians would beat hands down any contest to find the most politically ignorant people in the Western world), there are endless Mommy's boys everywhere, it's absolutely FILTHY here (rubbish everywhere...the landscape is used as a tipping ground for anything and everything), sacred and globally important buildings have 'Loredana, you're a f**king whore' sprayed in big letters on the side of them, politicians are particularly and spectacularly corrupt, the legal system is a joke (except, it's just not funny), Italians are xenophobic in the extreme, everyone wants to rip you off as soon as they hear that you are not a native Italian, nobody knows how to say please or thank you, and try changing $20 to Euro...even in big cities you will NOT find a place that will do it for you without taking 50% in commission. In short, a nation with no future. Please God help me to get out of here.

I'm not sure the embassy would be happy about me pitching up one day and saying "Hi, I want to live and work in Italy!"...

I've been living in northern Italy for the last ten years. This isn't particularly easy with the current economic conditions; the recovery is lagging behind the US a bit. As you suggest, you can't just show up and move in. You would need a visa to live & work here legally. EU citizens have the right to live and work freely within the EU, others cannot automatically live and work here. The site for visas here in Italy is: http://www.esteri.it/visti/index_eng.asp . The site has links to the application, the additional information you need to supply in order to get the visa and where to apply. It also includes education visas which are somewhat easier to get than work visas. You can find similar information for other countries on their consulate websites. The rules in much of the EU have been harmonized and will be similar. You cannot apply for the visa from Italy; you need to do that before you arrive. When you get here, you will have to apply for a Permesso di Soggiorno (Permission to Stay) from the authorities. This will have to be renewed annually. A work permit is separate - you cannot apply for that yourself. The company has to apply and they have to be able to demonstrate that there is not a viable EU candidate for the job. As a result, jobs for foreigners including Canadian or US citizens are pretty much restricted to people with special education, knowledge, or experience ... and you would have to be able to speak the local language. Right now, the best bet would probably be something in the healthcare field. When I moved here, it was through a transfer of the job I was already doing in the US to the Italian office. Even so, it took 8 months to put all the paperwork in place to apply for a visa. With the economy now, jobs are scarce - a lot of companies have a hiring freeze in place. The unemployment rate in Spain is around 20% for example and almost 50% in the 16 to 24 year old age group. It's not quite so bad here, but still behind the US in terms of recovery. Many of the recent university graduates I know here are either unemployed or working jobs like cashier at groceries. It's useful to check the expat sites for information about living and working in the places you might be interested in: http://www.expatsinitaly.com/ http://www.escapeartist.com/ http://www.expatica.com/ You need to look carefully into the economics of the move. The cost of living is somewhat higher here than in Colorado where my US home is. In addition, you'll need to file tax returns in both the US and Italy every year as a US expat and that can be quite expensive. There's an annual TV tax - 109 euro this year and fees associated with renewing your permesso di soggiorno and higher fuel prices. For me, it is worth living here for the lifestyle and opportunities to travel throughout Europe rather than the monetary aspects.
