Blog now being updated : Pl visit http://jobs.optionsindia.com/

Thank you for visiting this page.

Over the past couple of years-somehow this blog took a back seat

We have been trying to consolidate all the jobs on to one blog-http://jobs.optionsindia.com/

Over the last couple of years- the concept of an expat job has significantly been challenged. With companies keeping an eye on the rising costs, there has been a trend to focus LOCALLY more than before.

-Companies now are interested in promoting the repat jobs-ie people of local origin-who have a fair track record in professional companies overseas-and willing to repatriate back. Thus-they have can leverage on the roots-as well as long term commitment-rather than depending on the cross pollination of talent hitherto!

- Another change- is that most countries too -with uncertainty in economy looming over longer periods now, have been promoting policies to promote the employment opportunities for 'sons of the soil'-by making it more difficult for companies to attract & employ foreigners.

Stay tuned..please visit here -for the latest global opportunities!

Happy hunting.
