Exchange Programs
International exposure during your MBA can significantly enhance your chances of settling abroad. Many MBA

6. Building a
Global Network
Networking plays a pivotal role in settling abroad. A
robust global network provides insights into job
markets, company cultures, and unadvertised
opportunities. Attend alumni gatherings, join industry
groups on LinkedIn, and participate in global
webinars or conferences. Connecting with alumni
settled abroad can offer valuable guidance and
potential job referrals.

7. Navigating Visa and
Work Permit Processes
Understanding visa and work permit
requirements is crucial. Each country
has its regulations; for instance, the
USA offers the H1B visa for specialty
occupations, while the UK has the Tier 2
(General) visa for skilled workers.
Research your target country's visa
policies early and gather required
documentation to avoid delays.

8. Job Search Strategies for
International Markets
Customize your resume and cover letter to align
with local job market standards when applying
abroad. Research preferred resume formats,
interview practices, and job portals in your
target country. Companies with global
operations or those known to sponsor visas are
good starting points. Networking within your
industry can also uncover job opportunities.

cultural and professional norms

expectations. Developing soft
skills like adaptability and
effective communication can
aid in integrating smoothly into
your new workplace.
