Samantha Brown

Your interviewer is interested in how adaptable you are, and how far you are willing to go to advance your career. How you answer could inform them of how your career goals align with your personal and professional priorities. This will also offer insights into whether the incentive of working abroad for up to 30 days a year or their relocation assistance program, played any part in enticing you to pursue this opportunity. "International relocation assistance, plus support with all municipal services, makes for an easy start."

"I am very flexible. I love to travel, whether regionally or internationally, and would definitely consider any opportunity that was presented as the right opportunity. I also really appreciate the added perk of being able to work 30 days a year abroad, and the relocation assistance. Very nice."

Samantha Brown

Thoroughly familiarize yourself with the details and requirements of the position. Determine whether travel or relocation is required. Explore career advancement opportunities that exist within the company that intrigues you such as positions you aren't quite yet qualified for, but aspire towards, and the locations in which those positions are available. Lastly, carefully evaluate your personal priorities, such as needing to stay close to your extended family, and be honest and transparent with where your priorities lie.
