Canadian student in the UK wanting to move to France?

Canadian student in the UK wanting to move to France?
i am a canadian student studying in london. i'll be done with my undergrad in december 2010. i know french but i would not be considered fluent at it. how about do i go on moving to france after my degree? i'm thinking in terms of jobs. do i find a job before i move or do i go on a visit (hypothetically speaking), get a job and then apply for a work visa or a long term stay? how does it really go? thank you very much.

You need French good enough to interview and work in. If you are Canadian you have no right to job hunt in the EU without a visa. Other countries get nasty about people who ignore laws.

After you finish your degree you must have to apply for jobs with employers who are ready to sponsor you for work visa. Once a job is offered, its employer's responsibility to arrange visa for u to live/work in France. Once all is sorted out and u have visa in ur passport (its Type D visa for working in France). At renewal you will get a Residence permit (Type L) for one years renewable every year as far as you have a job. Good luck.
