My advice for Americans giving up on expat life. Don’t!

Young professional woman thinking about expat life during the pandemic.

While the pandemic tested us in many ways and changed how we approach our professional and personal lives; it is easy to understand why young professionals might feel that expat life is out of reach. Yet, the opposite is true. Research shows that companies still see the importance of expat assignments with the number of all types of international assignments increasing in the future. Furthermore, professionals who are currently abroad are confident that life as they know it will return. If working abroad is something you want to experience, don’t give up on it.
