i would like to work overseas. should i move to the country first then look for a job or find a job then move?

Question

where then can i obtain information? most recruitment websites don't write they want expatriates. how do i get the right job recruitment site specifically for expatriates? do appreciate your experience if you have. thanks again!

Answer 1

Don't go first. You could wind up on a very long and expensive unpaid vacation. Decide what you are going to do and then go for that before moving. There must be a million web sites that can help you. Do a google search. Good luck.

Answer 2

I taught English in Taiwan for two years. I did research first and found out it was quite easy for someone with a college degree to get a job. Then I flew there, answered an ad in one of the English newspapers, met the bosses, looked around the school, and accepted the job.

I knew others who accepted a job from their home country, but they still had to come to Taiwan, leave the country (usually to Hong Kong) to get a work visa, and then come back to Taiwan. There were blood tests and so forth that prevented them from getting the work visa from their home countries.

I also knew some Irishmen who were approached at Chiang Kai-Shek Airport upon arrival and offered a job. One of them ended up in the poorest township in Taiwan, where his boss asked him to lie and tell his students he was from Minnesota. The other asked if he got a room, and the guy said yes. Turned out the room didn't have a bed or even a mat in it. It was just a bare room, but it was a room.

My advice: do research and make contacts before you leave your home country, but don't sign anything before you eyeball the facilities.

Dave's ESL cafe has been a great online source of information about conditions abroad for years. Even if you don't intend to teach English, I bet you'll find something you needed to know at the link below!

Monster , Yahoo Hotjobs, Careerbuilder are some of the largest job boards, where you can apply for jobs and upload your resume. Since Craigslist, allows free job postings, many smaller companies post their vacancies on this online classifieds website. You can also search for jobs from multiple websites using aggregators like SimplyHired and Indeed. Referrals are also becoming a increasingly popular way to get hired.

Most countries won't let you in to live unless you already have employment lined up before moving and have all the necessary visas etc.

If you have a specific country in mind, I would start searching through the official government website for that country. They usually have a link that gives you further information.
