Senior Executive Career Management:

Should You Take An International Position During a Recession?

So the question today is, ‘Can I move internationally during a recession?’.

There are many pros and cons for traveling internationally, even in good economic times, but in bad economic times such as a recession, your chances of moving are severely restricted. However, case in point right now, I’m working with one of my EMBA clients who is currently in South America and because of her reputation, she was found by a headhunter in London for a job in Switzerland. So, that tells you, yes, you can travel internationally for a career position. And they are going to facilitate that transition, but be careful, there are so many restrictions right now. Not just because of COVID, but there aren’t aircraft to fly you between here and there and everywhere.

You can do it, but you need to be careful and you have to have the willpower and the drive to leave your current place of work and travel to elsewhere in the world.

Here’s a tip for you. If you do that and you become an ex-pat, you can really fill your bank balance. Being an ex-pat, doesn’t matter where you are anywhere in the world, can really help you financially. Plus, it’s a new challenge. You learn a new culture maybe learn a new language and a new challenge is very important in careers.

So yes, you can transition during a recession, but be careful because there are various restrictions. Make your own decision. Yes, you can, but it’s a little bit tougher to get a transition in a recession. If you are in a career transition, I’d be happy to help you manage and advance your career. Please visit my website, aneliteresume.com.

I am passionate about helping you reach your career goals and so I have an offer for you; a free resume critique and LinkedIn audit. I’d like to offer you a no-obligation, no sales pitch, LinkedIn audit, and a resume critique. However, I do warn you, I am realistic and I will say it as it is, I am tough because I want you to learn what I’m going to tell you and I will remove all the red flags for you so you have a complete bank of green flags, so it will be clear sailing if you have to go into career transition. Are you interested? If so, email me in the message section on LinkedIn. Or send me an email using the link posted below.

Yes, I want my free cover letter critique AND LinkedIn audit
