OT: Reconstruction Efforts and Job Opportunities in Iraq

Hey Chris,

Its hard to find a country in the world that Parsons Brinckerhoff is not

operating in .. they are one giant outfit. They've been here in Turkey

for a long time.

There is a source folks can search for overseas job openings .. most

likely they can find it in a library. Its a twice monthly newsletter

called the Fischer Report .. good info for sure. And there will always

be a few dozen Parsons Brinckerhoff positions open.

Taking that step from hometown boy or girl is maybe not an easy one but

the payoff is super-nice. One can save more in a year on such jobs than

they can in ten years in the USA. I had a few offers for Iraq as I'm

known by some in the Expat world .. but I am finished working for the

other feller. If I had to I would go in a heartbeat and it matters no

where I went .. the numbers would be the driving factor.

If ONE person reading this list benefits from these posts .. it will

have been worthwhile. In fact, that's why I posted.
