Global
Career Management Expert Patti Wilson Predicts the Professional
Career Pool Will Be Global, and Shows You How to Dive In.
NOVATO,
Calif. (August 8, 2012) -- Career opportunities and job growth
are global, and even domestic companies are looking to expand
overseas. Smart executives are expanding their job search, looking
for opportunities across the border where they can prove themselves
by building new markets. In the next session of Experts Connection
(http://www.experts-connection.com),
global career expert and CEO of The Career Company Patti Wilson will
discuss, “Going Global: How to Launch A Cross Border Job Search.”
The webinar is scheduled for Wednesday, August 22, from 4:00 - 5:30
p.m. ET, (1:00 - 2:30 p.m. PT), and is sponsored by NETSHARE®
(http://www.netshare.com).
The
days of the corporate ex-patriot assignment are gone as more
companies look to expand their reach into emerging markets. They tend
to hire talent to work on location, rather than importing executives
from the home office, and as a result, recruiters are working
globally and professionals are choosing to pursue advanced education
and career paths internationally. “I believe that there is a sea
change in how and where we will be employed in this decade,”
explains Wilson. “The scale is global in terms of visibility,
opportunities and markets. There are no local jobs, careers or
marketplaces anymore.”
In
this Experts Connection webinar, Patti will explain the ins and outs
of conducting a cross border job search. Included in the presentation
will be a discussion of how to determine the best location for your
career, creating a cross-border online presence, how to prepare for
relocation, and building a network of contacts and researching
opportunities using country, regional and global channels. Specific
discussion points will include:
-
Determining your search goals based on your personal career criteria.
-
Creating a game plan to find the opportunities that best fit your
experience.
-
Identifying potential countries, regions, industries, and sectors to
pursue.
-
Finding information and conducting complete in-depth industry and
company research across borders.
-
Building a substantial network localized in countries and regions on
your target list.
-
How to set up banking, immigration and business requirements in
advance.
-
Preparing for the financial, social, housing, educational and
multi-cultural challenges.
-
Negotiating beyond salary in terms of taxation and other kinds of
compensation, benefits, and perks, and what to look for.
-
Handling the interview process and determining the cultural fit of
both the company and the country.
-
Taking the long view and planning an ongoing international career.
“Today’s
business is clearly global, and so are career possibilities, so
executive job seekers need to understand how to compete on an
international level,” said Katherine Simmons, CEO of NETSHARE and
host of the Experts Connection webinars. “Patti has worked with
hundreds of executives developing successful international relocation
strategies. This is a must-attend event for any professional thinking
about taking their career beyond the borders.”
