Would Love to hear stories of people who went from the US to abroad, how did you make the jump? What are the qualifications? How long did you stay? What’s the difference?

Go to country first and the decide. Can't emphasize that enough. It amazes me the kids who think every place is like their hometown....it's not and you might hate.....and thats ok.

You will miss the dumbest things, and get angry about strange stuff.

I wish I remember what it was called, but when I did a year long study abroad there was an emotional process they provided us with in some study that most people moving abroad go through. Excitement, frustration, homesickness, and adjustment. We all went through it, 2 kids went back home, the rest of us finally adjusted. The hardest part for many is the language barrier. I took French classes every week while I was there to overcome it

I'm abroad right now! And I'm lucky - my company is looking to make their first footprint in the US and I'm helping lead that.

Qualifications depend on the country, and the work permits vary wildly.

Every three months for the first two years expect to be on an emotional rollercoaster.

I am a practice manager and I work with two older doctors who either complain about everything from notes to schedules etc. and even with the amount of time and effort I’ve put into to address those concerns I.e. setting admin time, utilizing PA’s and NP’s managing schedules within the office- even had to sit next to a doctor to make sure he’s completing his notes during 30min admin time- they still manage to complain! It’s driving me insane. What should I do?
