Seeking Onsite Opportunities – Need Insights & Suggestions
I’m currently working as an Azure Data Engineer with 6 years of experience in India. While I enjoy my role, I am actively exploring onsite opportunities in any country to enhance my career growth, financial stability, and global exposure.
I would love to hear from professionals who have successfully transitioned from India to onsite roles or who are in this process. How did you navigate the process? Which countries are actively hiring? What strategies worked for you—internal transfers, direct applications, or consulting firms?
If you have any insights, guidance, or experiences to share, your response would be invaluable. Please do upvote to reach it everyone.
