Will my Paralegal associate's and work experience count for anything when I move to Israel?
I have a Paralegal associate's and 10 years of experience working in legal firms of various kinds. Will it count for anything after aliyah?

That is the kind of question that needs to be addressed to a professional. Contact the Jewish Agency, it is their job to answer these types of questions. http://www.jewishagency.org/JewishAgency/English/Home/Information+Center And best of luck.
2 :
I concur with Gamla Joe's suggestion. You didn't mention when you are making aliyah. (Trends change from time to time.) If you are talking about the near future and have experience in the field of patent law or in international law, that will be to your advantage. Chanuka sameach and good luck!

I agree with the above two positions. On an optimistic note, much legal work involves international business law, and someone fluent in English like yourself may have a nice advantage when looking for a job.

...who knows. Their legal system is different. You may have to take some classes once you get there to familiarize yourself with their legal system.

You would have to search for companies that do that sort of thing in Israel. If you want to work here you would have to get a work permit. Your company will apply for one for you but it can be very expensive for the company (about 1000$). Why do you want to do this in Israel?
2 :
you can try and contact liveperson.com or shopping.com. both have centers in israel, and both have employees who work from home.
3 :
You consult the Israeli embassy

My daughter lives and works in Israel. Should she get her salary in Sheckels, or USD.
My daughter lives and works in Israel. Should she get her salary in Sheckels, or USD.?
What currency should she ask to be paid in. Say she needs to spend 70% of her money in Israel. And save the rest. Please also consider that the exchange rate is not able to be predicted by you. So I'm looking for an answer that deals with that uncertainty, rather than an answer that predicts the direction of the exchange rate. So I'd also like to know if you have any recommendations about taking a position in currency futures, etc.

I don't know how the Sheckel is doing on the global market, but if the dollar keeps dropping like a stone (as it has been for awhile), then if she has a choice, I'd DEFINITELY avoid being paid in dollars.
2 :
Israel has money changers all over. As she asks around & finds the reputable ones, she can use shekels as that is Israels' currency. When the rates are in her favor, she can change her $ over to whatever is offering the best deal.
3 :
Not sure about the Sheckel either but I wouldn't recommend getting the 30% in US especially with the way the market is going. I'd look into the Euros if anything or just keep the Sheckels if there doing good in the market. -Scott http://www.insurance-needs.info

I think she'll get paid in whatever currency the company that she works for uses. Chances are that since she is living in Israel and working in Israel, then she'll get paid in Sheckels.
5 :
Assuming she can choose, I can't see any advantages in her being paid in USD. The Sheqel is a stable and fully convertible currency and she will be spending 70% of her pay in Sheqel transactions. Being paid in USD would require her to spend money every month converting to Sheqels.
