Hi Radha, If you go to London, visit many of the Newspaper media offices in Fleet Street and talk with the editors. Try TV stations. Best wishes.

You may need to get a graduate degree in economics. Most international organizations recruit economics phd's for their main departments. You could also try another route and see which fields are currently in demand - positions for language interpreters, human resources specialists and technology specialists are usually available in these organizations. Good luck!

Are belgium/austria/switzerland/luxembourg good places to work/retire in

Are belgium/austria/switzerland/luxembourg good places to work/retire in?
(Please read this whole thing. I already asked this question before, but now i have more details)Im currently a resident in Florida, and im planning to get at least a bachelors in applied mathematics. I saw a similar question a few minutes ago, and there was an answer that said that you can go and work in a country that is in the EU if you have citizenship in another country that is also in the EU. Well i do, so would be better to build my career in US or Europe?I know those countries are really nice, so should i work here and then retire there, or would it be ok if i moved there to wrok after i get my diploma?

I think Luxemburg is the best (less taxes)

Just follow your hearth. Nobody can predict how the world will look like in 10 years. If you think you will make a good career US is the best option. You have to take in account too the language barrier in the beginning. All the countrys you mentioned are Dutch, french or German speaking. Switzerland is even not a member of European Union, so the rule of the membership is not valid there. Europe is more social and the cultural Facilities are wider. The pesion is much higher in europe (but who knows what it will be in 10 years...) comparing a Belgian/french company with a US-company based in belgium: a european company is more hierarchical structured. I know nobody who went live and work in Luxembourg because of tax reasons because the money you saved that way, you will have to spend on living.

What visa would I need if I live in Austria yet travel through out Europe for an American company?
My wife has a work visa through her company (which is based in Austria) that I am linked to. I will be an outside sales rep for an American company with no offices outside the U.S. My job will require extensive travel through out Europe and Asia. Our permanent residence will be in Austria.

Ireland is the only country which is not a Schengen Visa country

If you are going to be a permanent residence of Austria, you will need both a work permit and a residency permit. If your wife's company can organize both permits for you, you are all set. Having an Austrian residency permit will allow you to travel through all countries in the Schengan zone. Here you can read more about the Schengan Zone: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schengen_Agreement If the residency and work permits are NOT organized for you, and if you are not a citizen of the EU, you will find it difficult to get these permits. In this case, consider setting up your own company which will hire you. Once you have your own company, this usually is enough to get residency and work permits. However, this will be costly and must be done with a lawyer. Finally, with a US passport, you will be able to live in Schengan area for 90 days of 180 days with no visa at all. But after 90 days, you must leave the Schengan area. But if you are working and living there on a permanent basis, you should get residency and work permits. Otherwise, you will find things difficult in the long run.
