Are you an expat who is curious about what it takes to successfully manage your career transition before you repatriate?

Have you recently returned ‘home’ and now have more questions than before you left?

The presentation will provide you with the tips and strategies on how to:

Best prepare your career strategy and personal positioning

Engage with the employment market and Australian business community

Build your professional and support networks

Overcome those all-too-common repatriate challenges.

Simply register your interest here and we’ll send you a link to the Zoom meeting ahead of time.
