The Azerbaijan Republic covers an area of 33,891 square miles (86,600 square kilometers). It includes the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region, which is inhabited mostly by Armenians, and the noncontiguous Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, which is separated from Azerbaijan by Armenian territory.
Finding Work
In spite of most companies prefer the local qualified workers because of the big expenses for foreigners to live here, there are still many opportunities for foreigners to find a job. Searching the Internet is the main way that foreigners find work in Azerbaijan.
The best websites to look for a job are:
http://jobsearch.az
http://boss.az
