Start with a simple Google search for jobs in a specific country, like ‘jobs in Canada’. This will give you a great resource to start the hunt.

Network in Person or Online

Look to do some networking with other likeminded people. Sometimes this is possible in person, or you may be able do this remotely. There are some forums around that can help you find networking opportunities. Forums can also be a generally good source of information, not just for finding a job, but for the entire relocation process.

Contact Specialist Recruitment Companies

Many overseas jobs are placed with specialist international recruiters. You can easily find these recruiters online and can also do a search on recruitment companies in the country or city you want to relocate to. It might help to include the type of job you want, as this will help direct your enquiry to where you want it to be. For example, ‘Nurses jobs in Australia’.
