How to Find International Work
Focusing on the Reason to Work Internationally
Before you begin looking for an overseas job you need to know the reasons for working internationally.

The reasons you choose are important because different motives for working abroad can lead to very different experiences. For example, if the main reason for working abroad is to simply encounter new experiences and cultures, then you'll have a much easier time -- with many more opportunities -- than someone who is looking to gain professional work experience.
So, your first step is to determine your specific reason -- or reasons -- for working abroad.
