These 10 countries have the best career prospects for expat women by Alexandra Ma on Mar 5, 2018, 6:04 AM Advertisement
 Around one in four women move abroad for work-related reasons, according to InterNations, the world's largest network for expats. In its latest survey on expats' job satisfaction, the company interviewed around 7,000 working women living in 168 countries. Expats from 152 nationalities, including the US, UK, Germany, and Russia, took part. InterNations then ranked the top ten best countries for working expat women based on their likelihood of having a higher salary than back home, satisfaction with career prospects, and the number of weekly working hours a week. Scroll down to see, in descending order, the top ten countries for expat career women. 10. Ireland — expat women here say they enjoy high job security and good work-life balance. Many women here work in healthcare. Chance of a higher salary: 51% Satisfaction with career prospects: 63% Weekly full-time working hours: 41 hours
9. Kenya — one in six expat women say they earn more than $150,000 (£109,000) a year in gross household income, which is twice the global average. However, many of them say they work long hours and have less job security. Chance of a higher salary: 36% Satisfaction with career prospects: 60% Weekly full-time working hours: 46.4 hours
8. The US — like in Kenya, one in six expat women said they had a yearly income of more than $150,000 (£109,000). However, it seems to come at a price — only around half of respondents said they were happy with their working hours. Chance of a higher salary: 62% Satisfaction with career prospects: 64% Weekly full-time working hours: 43 hours
