One of the most important elements of any job-search -- including seeking overseas work -- is conducting research on prospective employers.Once you’ve narrowed your choices down to a region of the world – or down to a specific country – the next step is to develop a list of prospective employers with offices/plants/locations in that area and find as much about the employer as possible. You’ll want to research each local company, and, if they are part of a larger organization, research the larger organization as well. The more knowledge you have about prospective employers, the better your job-search. In some cases, you may even be able to search the company Website for possible jobs, learn if they hire/sponsor foreign workers, and post your CV. Find some great resources for researching companies and organizations in this section of Quintessential Careers: Guide to Researching Companies, Industries, and Countries.
