Many report that they are looking in job centers, newspaper ads, online, and other means of communication, but simply cannot meet the necessary demand that their projects require. Below is a list of the main areas where professionals are lacking in Portugal:

10 thousand in the Textile sector
28 in Metallurgy and Metal Mechanics
70 thousand in Construction
