When looking for an overseas job,check the languages required for the country.Some jobs require the person to be bilingual.If you are planning to work in China,you need to know Chinese.So you need to learn it before you hunt for a job.This is a must.I learned this when i tried looking for a job in Singapore.Trying to learn or knowing a foreign language is really a plus point.Highlighting this fact in resume improves your chance for job selection.

Credit rating your college degrees by an approved agency is yet another important thing.This is to find that the degree you earned in your country is equivalent to degree in the country of your job hunt.Also make sure to get an approved syllabus from the university you earned your job degree.This may be helpful in case of Job visas and for showing the employer if required.If the syllabus is in a foreign language,get a translated version in English if possible.This is required even if you are trying for higher studies overseas in future.

Looking for a professional job,you may require license approved from the country you want to work.In medical field jobs as Nursing ,a nursing license is required.

Apart from these ,there are other things as a work permit or working visa.This is another important factor without which you are not legally entitled to work overseas in any country.
