Create a job vision: Irrespective of whether one chooses to work in his/ her own country or go abroad, a job vision is a must.

To begin this, write your expectations clearly in terms of your achievements and growth with respect to a specific duration of time.

Choose the company/ destination: Once you are done setting a clear job vision, you need to list down companies you want to work in or destinations you want to be in. Also, do a research for job profiles in various countries and chose a country that has surplus jobs matching your work experience/education, etc.

But no matter where you choose to work, once you find a suitable place you want to take up a career and a position where you can fit in, be prepared for a series of interviews and number of technical rounds for matching the standards.

Having selected the company and destination you want to work in, also look for a job profile you desire. Many a time a job profile may differ slightly or more dramatically for different companies in different geographies. Therefore, you must be sure about the profile you are getting into before you sign and contract or make any commitment.

Once you are fine with the profile, try to find out the known and unknown policies of the company.

Discussion forums and groups over the net will help you in finding out hidden policies of the company (though one need not be too skeptical about it since usually good companies follow quite transparent policies).

Last but not least, don’t forget to look for all the documentation and official formalities from both you and the company.
