International Students

As an international student you will find yourself faced with the decision to pursue a job search in your home country or in the United States. If your interest is to pursue a job in your home country, you will need to adapt your job search techniques to your homeland cultural and societal norms. You will need to determine job search techniques and etiquette that will serve you best in your home country.
