French in Rome? That'd be hard to come by. France might be a better
choice. :)

English might be a very good possibility, provided you also speak
Italian. I have noticed that the Northern (nordic) countries tend to
speak more (and better) English than in the south (say Italy or Spain),
or in France.
Not meant in an offensive way, but merely an observation based on all my
trips across Europe.

So if you go the way as someone skilled in multiple languages,
especially the country's native language and english, you have a high
degree of landing a job.

However, the same might not apply to the Northern countries, since most
of us here speak english since college or highschool.

Unfortunately I would not know of any Italian sites with regard to high
tech information. Try a search on Google with some basic words.
