When you think about moving abroad, you never think about the obsticles you face while applying for any position that would have you.

Ep 27: Why I Changed Careers When I Moved To Denmark With Katie Garth
Today I really want to talk about Career Change. The more I talk to International moms I am noticing more and more people changing careers or having completely different jobs when living in Denmark.

I was working in the Beverage industry in Sales and Marketing, and when I moved to Denmark I shifted my industry and career to Technology and Telecom.
Ep 26: Going Back To School And Changing Careers In Denmark As An Expat Mother
I have talked to so many internationals/expats/immigrants living in Denmark and for some reason, many of them have the same pattern - Going back to school and Changing their Careers when they move to Denmark. I want to find out why so many expats and internationals decide to change careers when they move to Denmark.
Imagine going to school and working for years in your home country, but when you move to Denmark, nothing is equivalent to education here in Denmark. OR you simply can’t get a job because the Danish language is highly required for the positions.
