

service jobs will be obsolete

Most new job opportunities come from small companies with fewer than 100
employees, yet small companies are the least able to provide on-the-job
training

Workers will change jobs six to seven times during their normal working lives

Many technical and office occupations now require a post-secondary degree
as more employers prefer to hire trained personnel rather than provide training

12. Summary
Casual work - The majority of casual employment is in the
hospitality and tourism sectors, such as hotel and bar work or
working as a holiday rep. Other typical jobs is fruit picking.
Western Europe, Australia, New Zealand and North America offer
the best opportunities.
Reason Why people do it - For some people, working abroad
is a logical step in their career. For others, it's a necessity in a
tough job market or a desire for a better standard of living. And
there are those who do it to experience a different way of life. The
reasons to work abroad are numerous, and the experience can be
both life enriching and career enhancing.
At its best, an overseas job offers rich cultural experiences and
professional advancement — along with a whiff of glamour. But
international work is not for everyone, and those considering it
need to be realistic and strategic.
