Finding a job in Prague.

Many foreigners find themselves in Prague having followed a Czech girlfriend back to their native land. Or, having overstayed a long hazy summer weekend, find themselves in a desperate love affair with the country and are determined to remain by finding a job in Prague. Once personal funds run dry (which happens much quicker than 10 years ago) then the only option is the long walk home, or stay and get a job.
