Best Answer

After the Holocaust, most survivors were not really that concerned with getting a job as they were far more concerned with finding a place to live, food to eat, and whatever remained of their families. In many cases, Jews tried to return to their homes only to find squatters living there who refused to return the property. Additionally, many of their former communities were now rather Anti-Semitic. As a result, many Jews had to immigrate to the USA, Canada, UK, or Israel. For those who went to the former three, they had to market whatever skills they had in a very competitive and slightly Anti-Semitic environment. For those who went to Israel, they were immediately drafted into the army and sent to fight the Arabs in the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9. After this war, many of them were able to settle in small kibbutzim in Israel and find simpler work.
