«Go West», Americans once said to enterprising young people looking for work and fortune. The immense American 'Far West' promised both. Today there is another 'Far West' and it is Brazil, a country in full expansion where companies are wresting workers from their hands. Siemens, for example, which already has 10 employees in Brazil and wants to add another 800 this year, cannot find them in place and reroutes employees from offices in stagnant countries such as Spain, Portugal or even the United States.
Brazil, after rebounding from the 2010 crisis with a 7.5% growth rate last year, is expected this year and next to continue growing at a rate of 4-5% annually. An opportunity both for job seekers and for Italian producers looking for outlet markets and production facilities.
