Working Abroad
|
|
Real Gap offers countless exciting work opportunities. If you plan on working overseas, ensure you are in possession of a valid work permit. Some places might turn a blind eye and let you work without one, but it is definitely not recommended. Your year out could come to a grinding halt rather rapidly if you get caught.
If you are unsure of how to obtain a work permit, we can do the application for you. Remember to allow plenty of time before you plan to go on your trip, as these things can take time.
Real Gap offers you the opportunity to fund your travels by organising X number of paid work experience programmes throughout the world.
Things to take note of when planning on working abroad:
- The currency and what it buys you
- What the locals earn for doing the same job that you will be doing
- Make sure you understand exactly what it is you will be doing, so there are no false expectations
- How far your work is from where you will be staying and how long it will take you to get there
- What your working hours will be, as some countries might operate differently to what you are used to
