You’ve lived and worked overseas for 10 years building an amazing career in a market much larger and complex than Australia, so surely headlining your CV with ‘worked in New York looking after the Americas’ says it all? <\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Well, this is awkward, because I often tell people this could say too<\/em> much and not necessarily reflect the message that is going to get you in the door in Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When trying to transition your career from overseas into the local market, this isn\u2019t a case of \u2018toning down\u2019 your international experience for a tall poppy ridden Australian market, more a case of lead with your what, not with your where.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wait, what?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are coming home without a job, often your first port of call is often going to be recruiters, direct hirers, and your networks. You might be full throttle into the job search or testing the waters, either way you will be using feedback from these sources to determine your place in the market and what opportunities to go for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Note that none of these sources are career coaches or people particularly interested in the nuances of your international experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You may stumble across the odd one who will be generous to give you broad advice, but the reality is, even your own network is looking for a \u2018match\u2019 or \u2018a sale\u2019. They want to help, but nobody wants to have to try too hard. The people with the jobs are looking to match your story with a job they see in front of them, and they are also looking for signs that might rule you out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
