Die Globalsierung von Industrie und Handel in Kombination mit dem Internet hat eine enorme Zunahme der internationalen Stellenausschreibungen mit sich gebracht. Das sind gute Neuigkeiten f r die wachsende Zahl von Personen, die im internationalen Ausland arbeiten m chten. Dieses Buch hilft Ihnen dabei, Lebenslauf und Bewerbungsschreiben so zu verfassen, da sie den Konventionen des jeweiligen Landes entsprechen. Dabei k nnen diese Konventionen oder Standards sehr unterschiedlich sein; so darf z.B. in S dafrika ein tabellarischer Lebenslauf gut und gerne bis zu 10 Seiten lang sein. Jedem der 40 behandelten L nder ist ein eigenes Kapitel gewidmet, das jeweils von einem erfahrenen Personalberater geschrieben wurde.
