Welcome to the international-aholic corner!
Maybe you already know what a chocolate-aholic is (not that you might be one!) or you keep on being told how work-aholic you are, or maybe you have just watched the new movie “Confession of a shop-aholic” … oh well … if you are here it is because you are for sure an international-aholic.
A genuine, nutty, Peter Pan style personification of a pure international-aholic breed – and to you, fellow international-aholic friend – welcome with all my heart!
With all my international-aholic heart indeed!

And here is our corner – to share our international-aholic successes, addictions, frustrations, misses, laughs, angers, discoveries …
This is the corner for international-aholics who believe the world is an open, free and exciting land rather than one border after the other.
This is the corner for international-aholics who don’t believe a language can inhibit communication or a culture mutual understanding.

This is the corner for international-aholics who believe the limit in their international lives is just their imagination!
Have fun!

Job Search - Pill #2 - Research

Welcome to “pill # 2” in the Job Search tips! Last time, we talked about the important of having focus and being focussed. Discover below the second pill …


2. Research


Research what?? Anything and everything possible around your focus. Have you even seen the Jason Bourne movies? “Rest is a weapon” this was Matt Damon, alias Jason Bourne ‘s mantra for success. For you and your job search - Information is Your weapon!


After you have worked on your focus, you have clear what you want to do in your career. So you have now clear in your mind that you want an international life, where you want to, which organisations you want to target and which jobs you want to get – bottom line, you now have your FOCUS right?

Now is the time to spend days and nights researching – avidly eating and digesting as many information as possible. How is the job market where you want to go? Is your target company recruiting? What are some job boards you can use in that country or in that sector? What are some contacts you can use in your networking (and more to come here in the next blog entries – stay tuned!)?

We live in the Internet era; any information is just a click away – become an expert in your focus area and get ready … get ready for action ... and ... HAVE FUN!!


Take care,
Giulia
