Start with your profile

Assess your education, skills, experience, language ability and physical fitness honestly. These determine which countries and occupations are realistic for you.

Compare destinations

Each destination has different wage levels, costs, language requirements and contract structures. Compare them based on your goals — not only the offered salary, but also the terms, duration and growth potential.

Plan for the long term

Overseas work is often the first step of a longer journey. Ask how skills gained abroad transfer to other roles, future employers, or opportunities back in Nepal.

Common Questions

Review the whole package — wage, accommodation, working hours, duration and safety. A slightly higher salary can be outweighed by poor conditions.
