4.0 out of 5 stars A good general guide, May 22, 2000
If you would like to live overseas for an extended period but can't afford to do so without working, then this book will be very valuable. It provides very useful and interesting information on many different aspects of finding a job overseas. Just reading through the book makes you want to throw in your stateside job and head abroad. As someone who has taught English abroad, my only criticism is that the information the book gives on teaching English abroad is not very detailed or up to date. So if you're thinking specifically of teaching English, you might want to get a more specialized book, such as Jeff Mohamed's 'Teaching English Overseas.'

5.0 out of 5 stars An ideal and instructive reference, March 10, 2001
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Work Abroad is the complete, comprehensive, practical, and "user friendly" how-to guide for finding jobs overseas. Whether it's for an interesting volunteer position, a paid employment full or part-time, this indispensable guide is an ideal and instructive reference. There are country-by-country listings of key employers and organizations, lists of the best books and websites, a wealth of helpful first-hand reports from people on their experiences when working abroad. Work Abroad is a very highly recommended addition to any personal, school, job center, or community library jobs/careers resources and reference collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Chock full of useful info, January 1, 2003
Transitions Abroad magazine has seemingly always been the go-to resource for students, volunteers, and working travelers itching to get up and go. This book is a great resource for doing so in an informed and successful manner. No organization does a better job at compiling the best resources and they've tapped several experts from their stable of writers to give the low-down on specific areas.

While English teachers may require a more focused guide, the book does provide a good overview and plenty of relevant web sites to explore for more information in that area. For anyone wishing to travel and make a living at the same time, the purchase of this book is money very well spent. After all, if you land a job after using the guide, it'll pay for itself on day one.
