Publisher Description: 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 für die wachsende Zahl von Personen, die im internationalen Ausland arbeiten möchten. Dieses Buch hilft Ihnen dabei, Lebenslauf und Bewerbungsschreiben so zu verfassen, da sie den Konventionen des jeweiligen Landes entsprechen. Dabei können diese Konventionen oder Standards sehr unterschiedlich sein; so darf z.B. in Südafrika ein tabellarischer Lebenslauf gut und gerne bis zu 10 Seiten lang sein. Jedem der 40 behandelten Länder ist ein eigenes Kapitel gewidmet, das jeweils von einem erfahrenen Personalberater geschrieben wurde. |
