I have an MBA in Human Resource Management and I am interested in working internationally. I am a US citizen.?

I have several years in recruiting, change management and succession planning.

A lot of the global companies (Fortune 500) will love to have you since they need to export their recruiting standards overseas. But it also depends on
- are you currently employed, esp. employed at a firm with oversea presence, preferrably expanding their presence? If so you can ask to be transferred to the oversea office
- what language skills/international experience do you have? Do you have a cultural understanding for where you are going? I think these will weigh in as well.

Since you've already had significant HR experience, you could either ask your colleague who've worked overseas, or even just ask yourself the question: if you are interviewing this candidate for an oversea HR position, what would you be looking for? and then apply what you think is important to assess yourself.

I would strongly advise you to sign up on LinkedIn, the largest networking community (11M members) - www.linkedin.com.

You will find there hundreds of thousands of recruiters - many of them part of my LinkedIn networking list (I have access to more than 5M LinkedIn members).

Invite me (linkedin.com/in/otaupin - email: olivier@linkedHR): I have tons of contacts in the HR industry (both with corporate recruiters and recruiting agencies) since I am the moderator of the LinkedHR Group.

As you are a HR expert, feel free to subscribe to our LinkedHR group: (LinkedHR-subscribe@yahoogroups.com).

I have no doubt you find a job quickly if you follow these advises.

Hope this will help.

Hello you can try for a HR job in India or China. For this you could register with any local job portals - monsterindia.com or others. Many companies are now open to hiring foreign nationals and you will soon land up in a job in India.

Just a word of caution the compensation levels are pretty local and please do not compare them with that of US or Europe. Please do a reality check with respect to compensation levels here and position yourself within that range.

If you need anyhelp in this regard feel free to mail me at gvlr_99 at yahoo dot com
