Going global

Howdy,

As promised earlier today, I'll give ya'll a quick update on the other position that I just finished applying to. I found the job posting last night while looking for jobs in New Zealand and it turns out that the company has offices in Canada, Europe, Australia, and the US as well (among many other countries). The company in question is Meltwater News and I'm considering the International Management Trainee position out in San Diego (maybe the one in Texas too, but their deadline is farther out and I just want to work, I don't care too much where at the moment).

Anyways, the position includes an initial training period covering B2B sales mainly. Candidates with management potential will be retained and move up after training. The company values entrepreneurship and critical thinking, both characteristics that I have shown, and I do like what I've read about the company thus far. Meltwater News is in the business of media monitoring of their client companies, among other things, and was founded in 2001. They have experienced rapid growth over the last 8 years. 

I'm thinking that I could put in a year at the San Diego or Texas office and have them transfer me to, say, Toronto or London, both places I wouldn't mind working at at all :-)
