Job Sites in Armenia
When looking for a job, the classified section in your local newspaper is not exactly the best place to look in Armenia. On the contrary, it has all gone digital here, meaning that there are multiple websites one can check out, each catering to a very different audience. While some vacancies will appear everywhere, others are found on only a few of the digital media available.
Where can you look for work?
While the government has its own services to help you find work, they are not always the best route to take. You should, however, check out www.mlsa.am and www.employment.am. It does not hurt to keep informed about what the state can potentially do for you. You should concentrate on checking out these other sites listed below, however, where you can find work through direct company contacts. As for checking out how people rate different companies, calculating net/gross salaries, and using other such services, you might want to look up www.ratings.am.

Job Centers that can help you find a job for a fee, either a combination of up front and a percentage, or just the percentage. The first two are Repat Armenia partners. While legally none of them can discriminate based on age or sex, unfortunately all end up doing so at the request of the employers.
- Persona Center – Any type of job, at any salary. They enjoy working with repats and Syrian-Armenians especially.
- Accept Employment Center – No lower end jobs, for the most part. They only work with clients who are trustworthy and who follow the local laws. They also help with presentation and resume writing. www.accept.am
- Resource Group Recruitment Agency – All types of skilled or unskilled work, with pay that ranges from minimum to over 400,000 AMD.
- Vacant Recruitment Agency – Higher focus on labour and construction, with many vacancies added that pay minimum to 300,000 AMD.
- GortsBolorin Recruitment Agency – includes generally lower paying vacancies, with the odd higher salaried jobs appearing here and there. www.gortsbolorin.am
