How To Find A Job In A New Country by Geestunnar(m): 3:59pm On May 29, 2015
Finding a job is never that easy, not even in your own country. Try adding a completely different culture and style of work, a language that you understand more or less and you will get close to what it means to look for a job abroad.

However, this is a step that you cannot afford skipping if you are planning to move to another country so you may give it an extra minute to think about it.

There are two main options to consider. Firstly, if you are bold enough, you can just pack your bags and hope for the best. Secondly, you can put your trip on hold until you find a sure thing or at least until you set up some meetings and interviews. Whatever your direction may be, there are several issues you should consider:

Do a little research

It doesn’t matter how good you are in your field of work, if there isn’t a demand on the job market. In this case, you should probably consider taking some training courses, maybe even shift your career.

Apply for jobs before moving abroad

Once you’ve decided what you want or what you can do in terms of work, it’s time to start looking for jobs. Most companies have the option to fill up an online CV and in case they like your profile, they will contact you in order to set up the interview.
This step can also be done online, via programs such as Skype. This is one of the major benefits that the internet has brought in terms of job hunting. Companies have aligned to this trend and a lot of interviews are held online. However, if you are not lucky enough to get selected, at least you will have a clue about how hard it will be to get a job.

Contact a recruiting agency

There are several agencies that handle international job placement. You will need to pay a fee, but these companies usually assist you throughout the whole process, making the move a lot easier. Check if the agency is legal and if it has a solid background, because there are also a lot of scams out there.

Get your documents in order

Make sure that you meet the legal requirements in order to obtain a work permit or a Visa. Even if you find a good job, the employer won’t be able to hire you unless you have your papers in order.
