I did a secondment in Singapore from Australia — I am French and had a 4-year Australian visa.

I ended up with 3 reasons why it did not work: (1) someone said they messed up my visa/employment rights to stay in Singapore; (2) others say they terminated my contract under « HR restructuring » along with many other people; (3) my Singapore client said to me: « he doesn’t have the budget for me to stay longer »

Consulting’s basic business premise is the ability to generate revenue by being a trusted advisor to a client. If the work furthers your abilities to deliver value and deepens your relationships with a particular client than it’s a good move. If the work you will do when you return “home” is not connected in either terms of the skills set or the client (industry/company and/or economic buyer), then it’s a long fancy foreign vacation and a detriment to your career.

Who should I escalate to?
