All in all, competition among educated professionals will be increasing dramatically in the near future.
Points to consider when thinking about building your career in the international market.
Global market size. Global market size. Any national market is only a share of the world's economy. It is true even for the US, China, or the European Union - all of three economies are still times smaller than the global market. The difference is even more striking for emerging economies.
Proportion. For many professions, especially in the professional services sphere, local markets are disproportionately undersized compared to the share of the country in the world GDP.
Exposure. The most lucrative projects are usually available only for professionals and companies who have international exposure. They have the global experience and skills required to apply for large-scale and profitable projects.
Strategic view. Global market not only offers greater opportunities, but it also requires a more profound understanding of business relationships on a higher-level scale.
