Why have you accepted a job in a different country?

Hi...

What is the topic of your research?

Hi

It's based on profesionals that have lived AND worked in three or more countries, either 'sent' by a company or found a job an moved.

I have now worked in 10 different countries in the last 46 yrs.

@Stumpy - Wow . .  May I ask if that has been due to work and if so in which industry?

Civil construction industry.

... did it worth it?

Why should I limit myself to one country?
And yes, it was worth it!

I was going to answer the first question, but then read the rest.  Maybe that should have been mentioned in the beginning.

Hi .. Not sure what you mean?

For money and love to see the world.

Yes! coz I earned bigger salary (dollars) compared to my previous work in my country,,and for experience too!!!

new country, means new life

I moved to the U.S. first for the purpose of studying, then I worked. It has always been my dream to study in another country. As I finished high school, I was so hungry to see more of this world. Being born and growing up in the darkness of the Soviet Union and its scars that were left behind is not something I wanted to be stuck with. I wanted to get out and explore.
Living in a different country is such an eye opening experience, working and studying makes it even worthier. I feel so lucky to live in this world today. I just love the fact of the moving action going on around the globe. This doesn't just mean people moving from developing countries to developed ones to better their lives, but people from developed countries moving to developing countries to better their lives, for change, enlightenment and life enrichment... And of course, there are usually financial benefits, if in fact we already moved to a different country to accept a job.

I earned higher salary (dollars) , for experience, don’t want to limit myself to one country and love to see the world.
