Hi there, I'm British and have been here for about 7 months and haven't been able to find many opportunities work wise. I was wondering what most of the ex pats that use this site do for work? I'm not really looking for advice of what I can do more a picture of what other ex pats do. Thanks.

Run a forum, where others can ask what others do.

If you do not have a set of very portable skills, there is not much for a foreigner in terms of work in Chile. That is essentially true in any country now, but especially Chile. A pile of academic credentials with a 1,000 pesos, might buy you a cup of Noescafe; but, not much else.
