I moved to Central America for work and was looking for information on which professions were really in demand. On the website https://www.centralamerica.com/investing/business/emeringing-central-america-jobs/, I found an overview of the labor market, and it was this that suggested that everything was moving towards fintech and medicine. Thanks to this resource, I chose courses in cybersecurity and, a year later, was able to get a job at a company that works with clinic data. For me, this proved that skills are everything, even if the country previously relied on tourism and agriculture.
