Answer 2

Native english teachers!

Or work in call centers or sportsbooks. In San Jose, Heredia or Guanacaste.

Surfing and diving teachers!! They make the $$$ here!!

Answer 3

Unless you can prove that the job you can do is a real speciality type job then you have no right to work.  You would be a tourist.  The law says a tourist CANNOT work in a job that a Tico can do.  Wages are low .  A bartender makes 40,000 colonies a week  $90.  Construction workers skilled ones make $120/week.  So don't think you are going to get rich here.

Answer 4

the only city (or big town) here is San Jose, if you are fluenty in eglish you can get a job in a call center for $800-$1000 to start.
