Has anybody worked in the Tourism and Hospitality industry in America and went to work in Asia with a work visa?

East and southeast Asia to be specific. what was your career and were you able to get a decent expat package if any at all? do you like what you do? or did you transition to something else? was it difficult to secure a work visa? how difficult was the transition and which country did you go to?

Pursuing Hospitality management degree with goal of working as an expat in east Asia/southeast Asia

Hello everyone! i am currently pursing my degree in hospitality management also called (Global Hospitality Leadership). And I wanted to know the length of time it would take for me to work as an American expat overseas in east or southeast Asia.

how many years experience would I need in the Hospitality industry before I can transfer. I am aiming to start my career with MNC’s such as Hilton or Marriot or other reputable Hotel companies.

i currently make $61,000 a year. very close to $80,000 a year with a decent amount of overtime.

if I stick with the hospitality management industry will I be able to reach a higher salary than what I make now? any info would be helpful. My goal is to aim as high as possible. i used to work as a check in agent for 2 airlines as well for close to 2 years at one of the biggest international airports in America as well. So I am drawn to the industry and believe I have a passion for it. I do miss it and keep thinking about it more than other unrelated jobs I had.

will I be getting a pay cut going into the industry?

any info would be helpful. and if I forgot to mention something i’ll also write it or answer as well. Thank you! 😊
