Are you one of the thousands of Americans looking for jobs in Iraq? Apparently there are plenty of jobs available in the war torn country. It seems though; these jobs aren't for the common folk, since the jobless rate in Iraq is still over thirty percent.

The jobs that are availableare in the high paying oil industry, engineering, construction, and transportation. One of thebiggest American employers in Iraq is Halliburton. Company officials say what they are lookingfor is well trained, experienced people.

Jobs in Iraq offer some great incentives. If you are experienced in any of the fieldsmentioned above, making anywhere from 30,000 to 80,000 dollars a year, you can easily maketwice that amount or more. You can even do it without paying American income tax on it in some cases. Free lodging, free food and transportation to and from job sites are also great incentives for someone looking for a new great paying experience.

Some private contracting companies offering jobs in Iraq are increasing their pay for Working in Iraq. Working in Iraq offers benefit packages all the time. They can afford to do this because in a lot of cases their profit margin is up around twenty-five percent.

When you consider the fact that more than 250 civilians working for Americancontractors in Iraq , have been killed in the last couple of years and the risk of being blown up or

kidnapped and tortured is so great, that this is explained during recruiting and interviewing, it's hard to believe so many people are willing to risk their lives for so little money. I guess that's just one of the things that makes America great.
