6 tips to get hired abroad
If you want to get hired abroad you need to be aware of some important details. Because to stand out from the rest it is necessary to have a plan that makes sense.
For this reason, today we bring you six tips to get hired abroad and stand out at interview time.
It is no longer news that English dominates the world when it comes to communicating outside Brazil. This is why it was chosen to be our first tip today; after all, knowing how to speak English is extremely important if you want to get a job abroad.
Many countries already set English as the main requirement for a position, especially at an advanced level or fluency, and these countries like Germany, Holland, and Sweden stand out among those that set it as a requirement.
An extra tip is that you should also know a little of the local language, because this will make it much easier for you to communicate and understand with local people.
These tips are essential for almost all areas, but especially for you that are looking for IT, because having knowledge in several technologies will open important doors if you are looking for a job abroad. I talk a bit more about this in the article we did about How to work abroad without leaving Brazil?
Even if you are not going to work directly as a programmer but in some related area of IT, it is interesting to master different technologies that will make you stand out from the others.
In Brazil we start from the idea that if the person knows how to develop the service he/she does not necessarily need to have a certification that proves his/her knowledge. In foreign countries, however, certification is essential, because besides showing your acquired knowledge it shows that you have more technical knowledge that makes all the difference in a project.
If your dream is to work abroad, start today by researching and taking courses with certification for your area. This way you will be ahead of others and will find it much easier to get that long-dreamed-of position.
If you have read this far you are already a little more used to the foreign market and much closer to the dream job. But if you are new, read our other articles where we talk more about How you can find IT jobs in Europe. Where we explain some important points to get to know the market.
No matter how much you have planned for a long time to work outside Brazil. Knowing what you want is never too much, you will move to an unknown country, where everything will be new, including the way you work. For this reason, know well what you want, what your plans are, and the means to achieve them that way everything will become easier, even at the time of convincing a recruiter that you are the ideal candidate.
In these moments of preparation for something, the best thing to do is to have someone you can count on, even more who knows the path you intend to follow. For this reason, we at Recrute offer you our Recrute Academy service, where we work on these skills and take the first step for you to get your dream job opportunity abroad.
Now that you know some important tips for being hired abroad, it is good to understand which places you can apply to get the jobs.
Among the best countries we can mention are: Canada, USA, Portugal, Spain, France, England, Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Estonia.
Of course, there are other countries, but these are the ones you will probably want to take the risk to get a job, after all, they have a lot of structure to receive you and get you started with your life abroad.
