Overseas Job Offer
Congratulations, you landed a new job overseas.
If this has been your goal, you may want to eagerly accept the new offer.
However, you need to slow down and take your time to assess the situation.
Hopefully, the offer will be exactly what you are looking for in a new job, but you might need to negotiate a few small items.
You will want to make sure that the job offer will work for you financially and for your family.
Find out what your daily tasks will be and what hours you are expected to work.
Travel for work can be exhausting, so ask your company about your traveling schedule.
However, if you really enjoy traveling for work, find out if there are opportunities to travel for work within your new country or internationally.
You will spend a good portion of your waking hours at your job, so you need to make sure it is something you will enjoy!

Company
If you have been given an employment offer by a new company, research the company’s history before you accept the offer.
Find out if the company is doing well financially and if there is a high employee turnover rate.
If possible, speak to a current or past employee.
If there are other foreigners working at your new company, see if you can speak to them about their experiences.
Speak to your bosses before accepting the offer and get a good feel for their work styles and expectations.
If you feel there are any red flags, seriously reconsider accepting the job offer.

Compensation
Find out what currency you will be paid in because the fluctuation in exchange rates can affect your salary.
In addition to salary, find out what benefits you will be given.
Will you have access to healthcare?
If you have a family, you will need to know whether or not the benefits extend to your family.
Does the company contribute to your retirement fund?
What vacation time will you be given and are there any restrictions on dates that you can travel?
Benefits can make up a good portion of your compensation, so determine what you need and what you will be paid.

Relocation Help
Many corporate positions, and even English teaching positions, are offered relocation help.
Reliable and efficient International Movers, like IntlMOVE, will make moving your household goods and personal belongings overseas a piece of cake!
Find out whether or not your new employer will pay for the shipment of your household goods and personal effects.
Airfare can add up quickly, so negotiate your initial flights and regular flights home to visit friends and family.
Work permits and Visas can be difficult to obtain.
Will your new employer help you secure this documentation?
If the country you are moving to is a non-English speaking country, will your employer pay for language courses?
If you have children, will the company pay for private or English speaking schools?

Housing Accommodations
Many years ago, corporations offered amazing relocation packages with housing accommodations, additional pay and a wide range of benefits.
Today, the relocation packages usually do not include all the perks of the good old days, but they usually cover some housing costs.
They may offer you a serviced apartment or help finding an apartment overseas.
If they will not pay for your housing, negotiate housing help for a short period of time while you are getting settled or looking for permanent housing.
You can also negotiate a trip paid for by the company prior to your move to look for housing.

Deciding to Make the Move
If everything seems good, then you will be on your way to an experience of a lifetime!
Make sure everything you negotiated is put on paper and in a legal contract.
If possible, have a lawyer review the contract for your benefit.
After everything is set in stone, it is time to prepare for your move.
