随着金融危机的蔓延,全球的失业率是越来越高。对于广大的留学生来说,不仅是学习知识,更是要学会生存,看懂世界,下面方向标为大家带来如何在海外找到工作How to Get a Job Abroad?

We’ve all heard the unemployment numbers, and we know that the job market in the States is a trial by fire for even the most accomplished professionals. And, according to President Obama, things are likely to get worse before they begin to get better.

International unemployment rates are also expected to rise as part of a struggling global economy, but American workers may still have better luck finding jobs overseas. Many Americans are already outsourcing themselves to countries where they can afford to live on the strength of the dollar, where they can find satisfying work, and where they can reap the benefits of living in another culture. interesting

For decades, college students have been taking a year abroad to increase their understanding of the world, not to mention their joy at being a part of it.

If You’re Looking for a Career Move …
If, for whatever reason you’re considering a permanent move, but you don’t want to interrupt your career track to go abroad, there are ways to take your job with you. You might not have the exact job you have right now, and it might take a couple of years of planning, but it is doable to accomplish your career goals overseas, especially if you’re in particularly international fields like business or communications.

The first step is to do your research. Are jobs in your field outsourced? Do you know which companies send workers abroad? Investigate trade publications for leads and chase them down. That way, when you propose a move to your boss, you’ll be armed with information.
