Untitled 4 weeks ago

Well, interviews are starting up again. We’ll see.



All set 4 weeks ago

I´ve got the visa and I`m ready to move in 10 days, starting work in 2 weeks. Yay!



Untitled 2 months ago

I still want to do this, but with the economy as it is, it seems like it’s much more of a shot in the dark. At the same time, if I do get into this program, it can give me experience while waiting out this recession…



Update: 3 months ago
  • all paperwork completed on my part
  • waiting for update from employer´s side
  • getting ready to make lists of all the things I need to do before moving
  • trying not to get too impatient waiting for my visa :)

Sigh 4 months ago

It seems the program I applied to ran out of spots this time around. I’m still waiting to officially hear from them, but right now it doesn’t look good.

I’m not sure what I will do now, especially with the economy the way it is. I still want to go though.

Untitled 4 months ago

Plan A: one of my 2 interviews in Michigan might work out
Plan B: I found an agency that arranges paid internships in the US.
One of those 2 simply has to work out :)



Tomorrow 4 months ago

I will ask my boss about taking a week off work and get him to sign the form. Then I can book my flight and start worrying what to wear for my interviews ;)



Work Overseas. 5 months ago

A little about myself: 28-years-old, American, 4-yr B.A. in Intl Studies/Communication, speak some Spanish, and lived abroad in England for a little under a year.

My question is: Does anybody know of any programs for Americans, who are no longer in college, to work abroad? Now that I have graduated from college I would like to go abroad again to work. I applied for the JET Program (Japan) but was not short-listed unfortunately. I prefer government programs but am open to other reputable programs as well.

Thanks!
Suki
