Go-Getters move abroad to boost their career: close to three in five (58%) cite finding a job abroad on their own as the most important reason for moving to another country, followed by 31 percent who were recruited by a local company and ten percent who planned to start their own business abroad.

Maybe it카지노 게임 컬렉션�s their strong career focus that motivated them to invest in their education: ten percent of Go-Getters hold a PhD, compared to seven percent globally 카지노 게임 컬렉션� only Students have a higher share of expats with a PhD (11%). Another 45 percent graduated with a master카지노 게임 컬렉션�s degree, and 33 percent have a bachelor카지노 게임 컬렉션�s degree. When it comes to their career field, the 온라인 카지노 게임 Insider 2018 survey shows that Go-Getters mainly work in education (16%), IT (12%), and manufacturing & engineering (9%). 카지노 게임 컬렉션�Working life in Germany is very satisfying, especially for engineers like myself, as there is an abundance of jobs and opportunities available,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says an expat from Singapore, who moved abroad after finding a job on his own.

Additionally, 59 percent are happy with their career prospects, compared to 55 percent globally. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�The job I have is very exciting in terms of the future, and the salary is very good,카지노 게임 컬렉션� reports a British Go-Getter living in Vietnam.

Putting work first might have an impact on their personal life: close to one-quarter of Go-Getters (24%) are currently not living in the same country as their partner. This isn카지노 게임 컬렉션�t only the highest share among all expat types, but also twice the global average (12%). Therefore, it카지노 게임 컬렉션�s no surprise that close to one in ten (9%) are unhappy with their relationship, which is also the highest share among the various expat types.

Moreover, 25 percent don카지노 게임 컬렉션�t feel at home abroad yet, and another 18 percent believe that they never will (vs. 22% and 18% globally).
