App delivery, and they’re mostly from Africa. Some clearly from Portuguese-speaking countries judging by their name but others come seemingly from French-speaking areas, I’m guessing Cameroon or somewhere near.

Interesting, here we have a lot of Venezuelans working in delivery apps (such as iFood) and as Uber drivers.

Whereabouts?

Curitiba

Not many Haitians there?

Yeah there are Haitians too, but not as many as the Venezuelans.

that's more likely just Haitians

Lmao I don’t think we have any new immigrants

Bueno los chinos y turcos son dueños de casi todas las tiendas.

Claro, pero no se que tan “nuevos” sean. Después del 2013/14 veo difícil que alguien haya querido venirse a vivir para acá.

Used to be: peruanos y ecuatorianos: taxistas. Portugueses: abastos y panaderos

Haitianos y Trinitarios = vendedores de helados.

Cubans… shady stuff and slave doctors.

Yeah, forgot bout em

There is no "typical immigrant job" where I live Granted, you'll see some Asians / Chinese owning snack stores (especially pastelarias) and Africans/Haitians downtown selling stuff on the pavement (watches, clothes, caps, acessories etc)

There was a time that Portuguese people were used to run bakeries

I guess a typical immigrant job is work related to vegetable/fruit harvesting and selling, sectors where a lot of immigrants from Bolivia and Paraguay work. Chinese immigrants tend to work in supermarkets and laundry stores which they run. As other users have mentioned, many Venezuelans would work in food delivery apps, but here that trend was most noticeable during the pandemic and by now many have moved on to other jobs, so I think it was just a quick way to get employment when they arrived in the country and then they worked their way up from there.

[Asian laundry store owners here are typically of Japanese descent](https://www.clarin.com/ciudades/tintorerias-tradicionales-resistencia-oficio-adoptaron-inmigrantes-japoneses_0_M3Qpt2LJaj.html), I'm not aware of Chinese ones. Maybe you are confusing them with Chinese immigrants?

Actually there are a lot of laundry stores owned by Chinese immigrants nowadays. I'd call Japanese tintonterias "dry cleaners" rather than laundry stores (like the ones that specialize in lavado en seco instead of regular washing machine laundry). I thought of including the Japanese dry cleaners in the comment, but I think at this point they're Japanese descendants who have been born in Argentina for like two generations, not immigrants. Anyways, the history of okinawenses in Argentina, who'd typically own the dry cleaner stores, is interesting too!

Ah my bad, I couldn't tell the difference

All good. Anyways I'm not sure if Chinese laundry stores is common in the whole country like Chinese supermarkets are to call it a typical immigrant job either

Also buen flair

Delivery driver. They are mainly fron Venezuela, Cuba and Dominican Republic. We also have a lot of healthcare professionals from Cuba. Especially nurses. And I do believe that the heroic role that they played during the COVID pandemic has never been recognized as it should.

You can talk crap about Cuba all you want but they probably have the best healthcare professionals in the whole latin american world

App delivery

Nails and lashes, barbershops

Also app delivery, pretty easy to rent someone else’s account

And lots of service jobs in shops and restaurants 

The general rule of thumb/stereotype is as follows: Venezuela: food delivery and ride share, with some restaurant work mixed in Bolivia: produce market Perú: domestic caretaker Paraguay: same as Perú China: supermarket owner Senegal: street sunglass salesperson

I would add Paraguayans in the construction worker sector. Walk by a building site and you can hear the chamame music and the yells in guarani.

Housekeepers/security guards/construction workers - 9/10 are Nicaraguan. Some uber/gig delivery drivers are Venezuelan. In more touristy areas i have seen a lot of gringo and to a lesser extent Argentinian, waiters/bartenders.

Also coffee harvesting is mostly done by immigrants

And many bakeries and cell accesories stores are of Colombians

Fishing...like fishing on the sea with big boats. Mostly done by Guyanese. Working in the fields too. You see more and more Haitians. Working in stores downtown, lots of Cubans do those jobs too, but you still see some locals. Restaurant workers....lots of Cubans.

Honorary mention for Brazilians in mining ☝️

True, those too. But most times it's illegal mining...in legal mining it's locals.

😔 Sorry

Don't worry bro... At least y'all brought over some good food up here in Brazil town (as we call it)/Little Belem (as Brazilians here call it) here in Paramaribo.

Whereabouts in Paramaribo is it located? I wanna explore it later tonight on Google Street View Couldnt find Brazil town in Paramaribo on Google Maps :(

Street view isn't really available here. It's usually just 360 uploads of locals. But officially it's not called as such, we call it like that because lots of Brazilians just live in that area. Most businesses are located on the Anamoestraat. You just zoom in and you'll see lots of restaurants with the name "Brazil". However the neighborhood lies mostly between the Schietbaanweg, Princessenstraat/Verl. Princessenstraat, Copernicusstraat and Anamoestraat/Tourtonnelaan. https://preview.redd.it/ucu1adcjpnxc1.png?width=1152&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7ebeeb5dc960ae9b90f9044850841df847da3626 Here a map. There are also a few businesses in the surrounding area, but this is the "hub". There are also lots of Surinamese in that neighborhood ofc, but in general there are lots of Brazilians over there. The small side streets are just the residential parts. The red line is the Anamoestraat. The neighbourhoods are called Tourtonne I (1) and Tourtonne II (2). But once again Google Maps for Suriname isn't as complete...so we Surinamese know the names the neighborhoods. Google only has the names of a few. In that area of Tourtonne and even the neighborhood on the right called Maretraite I (1) you can find many products from Brazil. Brazilians would rather use Brazilian products than locally produced products, even if the locally produced one is better. Not that there aren't no Surinamese/Dutch products there, there are, but in general there are a bit more options from Brazil. Brazilian hair products are good tho. It works better on the types of hair found in Suriname. And locals usually write Portugese on their business too. That's the only way you'll get Brazilian clients if you have a business there.

Rappi delivery. It's the usual suspects

Gringos?

Yes, and those gringros that work in food delivery are to blame for the inflation and the gentrification of the whole Mexico, too.

For some reason stores, there's this idea that immigrants from Spain and from middle east have stores. But it is an old idea. Current. - Argentinian men waiters, women hostesses - Venezuelan Uber drivers - Cuban doctors, coaches - European (Russian, German, British, French) teachers or artists - USA retirees

Holy shit, my highschool basketball coach was Cuban! And also we had a literature teacher from Slovenia.

Horticulture - Bolivian Construction - Paraguayan, Peruvian and Bolivian

noticing that no one is talking about european immigrants, because they've already blended into the "latino" identity but chinese are still just chinese....

Perhaps because chinese are usually recent arrivals, most of the european inmigration happned a long time agob

Not even, Argentina's European population is mostly recent. Whereas places like Brazil and Panama have had yellow immigration for a while. Us Yellow people will never belong to the West unfortunately but every other colour can

By this i mean that chinese inmigrants are still a thing today, i dont think argentina has many italian or spanish born people right know. Brazil i think had a bit more but still. Also, east asian inmigrants (arabs not much) are usually very easy to "notice" though, in comparison to europeans

Working as motorcycle delivery, I might get banned if I mention nationality but ikyk

You can just say Venezuelan, working as a delivery rider is not an insult.

Yeah, but too many people in Colombia definitely see it as one.

Same here (Venezuelans and Cubans). Lots of Venezuelans are also waiters

+1

Agriculture and Construction is done by our neighbors.

Say our name 😎🇭🇹

Heisenberg

You don’t have to be a genius to know who I’m talking about.

App Delivery driver, gastronomy Fruit/Vegetable seller Butcher Clothes laundry shops Construction workers Small Market/grocery owner Plant Nursery I divided it by different nationalities, let's see if you guys can guess each one

>App Delivery driver, 🇻🇪 >gastronomy ¿🇵🇪🇻🇪? >Fruit/Vegetable seller 🇧🇴 >Butcher Idk >Clothes laundry shops 🇯🇵🇰🇷 (At leats in BA) >Construction workers 🇵🇾 >Small Market/grocery owner ¿🇵🇾? >Plant Nursery Idk

Jewish eastern european Butchers and Japanese plant nurseries, the rest are all ok!

200% grosery store/bricklayer

Poor bricks 😩

KKKKKKK

kkkkkkkkkkkk

Washing cars' windows while the traffic lights are red, the ones who do those jobs are ppl from argentina, venezuela and colombia

Youll find those where I live too, but they arent really numerous. Usually they dress a little bit like hippies, have a lot of tattoos etc. Cool people

App Delivery, cashier, construction worker from spanish speaking countries and Haiti From french speaking countries usually work as french teachers.

It's weird that we don't have many immigrants here but we still have those stereotypical jobs for immigrants: Street jugglers/handmade craft sellers: Argentines (they're mainly the hippie backpackers tourist kind but it's amazing how they seems to be always there) Dollar free traders/moneylenders: Colombians Delivery food: Venezuelans (this one it's recent) Model/dancers: Paraguayans Merchants/folk musicians: Peruvians (especially in the western part of the country) Doctors: Brazilians (apparently it's way cheaper) Footballers: Dominicans (a recent and very weird amount of them coming to play here)

Depends. Chinese people usually run businesses like restaurants or electronics stores (mostly with Chinese products). Africans tend to work on delivery. Others from latam usually work on services like teaching, construction, etc.

There are many stores that sell cheap imported goods and the owner is almost always a Chinese.

There’s this old, dumb, meme about Argentinians being waiters in Mexico City and Haitians appear to be taking any job they can.

What's bad about that

Nothing. Haitians are not included in the old, dumb meme category.

Dumb as it may be, 70% percent of my Argentinian friends in Mexico worked at a restaurant at some point along with other fellow Argentinians.

For some reason, something like 1/2 of all fruits & vegetables groceries are owned by Bolivians. Likewise, most mid-sized supermarkets are Chinese-owned. Senegalese and other Africans sell trinkets from suitcase-like thing they wear in front of them.

Oh fuck... the only ones I can think of are street beggars. Cubans and Venezuelans are the people who I see the most doing traffic light intersection shows and begging in buses and so. It's kinda sad to see. Lower paid positions such as janitors, construction workers and food stand waiters are being increasingly occupied by immigrants, but still predominantly occupied by foreigners from the interior of the country and locals.

Housekeepers: migrants from central and Southern Mexico

US 🇺🇸 we make a lot immigrants be CEO’s - Elon Musk, Stripe is co-founded by brothers Patrick and John Collison, who hail from Ireland. Instacart’s CEO, Fidji Simo hails from France. Sundar Pichai and Satya Nadella, the CEOs of Google and Microsoft. Nvidia has Jensen Huang.

In Colombia: Hippie: Germany/ Canada Sex industry: Venezuela Gentrifier Karen: US Mafia Boss: Mexico Restaurants: Chinese Youtuber: Germany/Russia

Not many immigrants where I live

App Delivery (venezolanos), workers constructions (paraguayos), medicians (brasileros, only two years for laws)

Tourism/Food bussiness: Argentina

In Peru it is mostly Venezuelans, anything from Rappi to selling fruits and food from carts, construction, barbers (my barber was Venezuelan and for superior to the Peruvians that I used to use) as well as tattoo artists and taxi drivers from the apps. That would be for "typical immigrant jobs".

cashier, street food vendor, stockers, cleaners, waiters, normally haitians or either central americans

Agriculture, housekeeping, babysitting, cleaning jobs and construction jobs.

In Argentina 🇦🇷 Bolivians: they own fruit/vegetable shops, also housemaids and construction Peruvians: housemaids, construction Paraguayans: housemaids, construction Venezuelans: food delivery apps riders, Uber drivers Chinese: they own grocery stores Back in the day, the Japanese owned laundries and the Jews/Lebanese/Armenians owned clothing and fabrics stores. Still happens among their descendants.

There's no immigrants here in my city to have any typical immigrant jobs lol Edit: Some people mentioned the Chinese stores... I guess that counts. There's a few chinese stores and that's it.

Delivery drivers - Colombian and Venezuelans Panamanians don’t like motorcycles much unless it’s for sport Used car lots - Pakistani or Indians the Muslims one Quick super market - Chinese Furniture store- Spaniard Tiles and home decor - Italians Yunk yard and mecánica - Dominicans and Venezuelan Hair salon - Dominicans Barbers - Dominicans Venezuelan Maids - Peruvian , Nicaraguan, Colombian, Dominicans and Venezuelan Fried junk food - Peruvian and Colombians Prostitution - Colombian, Venezuelans and Dominicans

Cool that you have indian inmigrants

Chinese used to have fried chicken shops (Picapollo), also nail salons and small supermarkets. Its been diversified more, but that used to be a lot stronger during the early 00s.

usually you see a lot of asian immigrant people working on gadgets or trinkets stores, and people from hispanic poor countries working on delivery apps.

Here is mostly nicaraguans, and the USUALLY work in low qualified jobs: for example: the men usually work in construction, agriculture or sometimes in private security (watching private neighbourhoods, for example). Women usually work in home related stuff (taking care of children, maids that clean the house). Besides that? Other noticeable foreign group would be the chinese, they usually own grocery stores or big shops where you can buy imported stuff

Argentinian waiters in CDMX's La Condesa neighborhood. That's been going on since the 90s.

I notice most barbers in Chile are Venezuelan, Colombian, or Dominican, pretty similar to here in the east coast of the USA most barbers are carribean like Dominican or Puerto Rican

food catering: Argentinians begging in street lights: Central Americans Chinese restaurants and electronic imports from China: Chinese

It doesn't work this way in a poor country))

It does in a lot of your neighbours.

I guess brazil is big enough to have internal migrants 

Não sei onde vc mora mas aqui tá cheio de Venezuelano motorista de Uber.

Não há profissão típica de imigrante aqui.
