First, you need to understand the difference between Immigrating vs an International Career: They are quite different ways of getting out of current job markets.
- Immigration requires you to leave your Country of Residence for another with probable intentions of not coming back. It will require to get a Temporary Resident Status and a Work Permit, which may not be very easy in most cases. And having both does not guarantee you will get a Job: You still have to search and compete with other immigrants and/or nationals.
No Country will immigrate you. You have to do it yourself. You have to plan and take action. You will have to compete with other immigrants and/or nationals. You need hard currency to immigrate and survive the first 3/6 months.
- International Career is another totally different thing. It is highly dependent on you being bilingual and have a STEM Degree usually in Engineering with at least 5 years experience in a given specialty. Sometimes, First Line Managers or other specialized professionals may have international potential as markets confront scarcities.
Either you are Immigrating or pursuing an International Career, a Self Dimensional Analysis must be made to properly understand yourself, your career, the impact on your immediate family, and strategic mistakes.
There are 4 critical dimensions to be considered:
- EXISTENTIAL, EMOTIONAL CONSTRAINTS, Long term LIFE FAMILY IMPACTS & COMMITMENT, even consideration of quitting your current nationality: To begin with, let us discuss the topic of Initiative, Personal Accoutability, Course of Action, Personal Vision, & Personal Life Mission. Why? Because without those conditions you are doomed to failure.
Market Optics: Understand Global Markets Dynamics, Tools available for running the search and your own Frame of Mind & Barriers: Wrong Social/Cultural beliefs in your head may lead you into trouble.
Decision Making after careful Market Analysis and Intelligence Collection.
Project execution: Understanding each of the 6 modules of my Job Search Methodology.
You need to think global and in terms of rings: Your First Ring is where you live or work, the Second Ring is all of those Countries around your. The Third Ring is the Whole World International Markets.
Miths:
- Recruiters & Headhunters never assume the responsibility of defining what you are or what you want nor to find possible career paths/opportunities for you.
That is your accountability
Challenges:
Whithout a clear self understanding of who you are and what you want, your search is doomed.
To execute a successful Job Search: be Local, Regional, Immigration or Expatriation to any given Country, Region of the World International Job Markets in which a Talent war exists (be for scarcity, economic growth, population getting too older or having no replacements) you must have a Methodology & Process about how to Analyze the Markets, Functions and Industries,
Define course of action, Plan objetives, Organize search and Execute Applications and Referrals connections.
