:::::: YOUR FIRST STEP TO FINDING A JOB OVERSEAS ::::::
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
WELCOME to the email information service of OVERSEAS
JOBS EXPRESS. This electronic brochure will tell you
how to subscribe to the world's No. 1 newspaper for
international job-hunters.
It will tell you how to get books that will help you
in your search for a job abroad. It will tell you how
to get professionally printed labels addressed to
foreign recruiters in YOUR profession who are looking
for staff NOW.
OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS - OJE - is not expensive. An
entire year's subscription, opening the door to 36,000
brand new jobs, will cost you the equivalent of about
two US dollars a week. And that includes airmail
delivery! (See below for full subscription details.)

If you have been using the Net to try to find a job
abroad, you will know how difficult it is. Nearly
all the work you see on Usenet, for example, is for
computer professionals. And nearly all the jobs on
Usenet are for nationals of the countries where the
jobs are located.
That's not much help to those who want to work abroad.
OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS solves those problems for you
instantly.
First, all the jobs we advertise are for FOREIGNERS
(which means YOU, once you've left your homeland!).
All our jobs are available on the day the paper is
airmailed to subscribers, so every subscriber stands
an equal chance.
Second, we carry jobs for all - from fruit pickers to
financial controllers, from bar staff to bankers,
from camp counsellors to construction engineers.
Owned and edited by staff with years of experience
of working abroad, OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS is your
passport to a new future.
Each two-weekly issue contains at least 1,500
overseas vacancies. You won't find a bigger, better
choice of jobs abroad than we offer in our classified
columns: jobs of all kinds, from scores of countries.
OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS was launched in Britain five
years ago. The original aim was to cater for
footloose Britons, but we have since won an
international readership. Subscribers in eastern and
western Europe, the Americas, Australasia and around
the world have found OJE the fastest way to a coveted
job in the country of their choice.
Used by major recruiters worldwide, subscribed to
by many thousands of individuals, hundreds of
libraries, job clubs, and other organisations and
institutions, it is not surprising that OVERSEAS JOBS
EXPRESS was nominated for one of the BBC's prestigious
Business Awards.
How to find your way round this brochure
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is a long document. If you print it out it will
fill about 12 pages. You can scroll through it to
find what you want, or you can use your computer's
word-search facility.
Use the following phrases to word-search
the sections you need:
PART ONE - THE RECRUITERS WHO WANT YOU
PART TWO - WHAT OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS OFFERS
PART THREE - THE OJE LABELS SERVICE
PART FOUR - THE OJE BOOKSHOP
PART FIVE - HOW TO SUBSCRIBE TO OJE, AND HOW TO BUY
LABELS AND BOOKS
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
:::::: PART ONE - THE RECRUITERS WHO WANT YOU ::::::
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
The one thing that links all readers of OVERSEAS
JOBS EXPRESSS worldwide is the English language. All
our subscribers are fluent English speakers. Most are
from English-speaking countries.
Being a native English speaker - whether with an
American, an Indian, a British, an Australian or some
other accent - is an attraction to overseas employers
because English is the international language of
business. Having English as your mother tongue is
often a passport to working in different countries:
everyone wants to learn our language!
The companies who advertise in OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS
represent every kind of profession and industry. Most
of their jobs are never advertised elsewhere.
Large industrial corporations and governments
regularly advertise in OJE. They know that it brings
results and attracts the right applicants.
Because of our reputation in the field of overseas
employment we have become a clearing house for
information on the overseas jobs market. Companies
and employment agencies fax us their vacancies
as soon as they become available. This means that the
jobs which appear in each issue are right up to date.
Professionals
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
English-speaking professionals are in big demand in
the world job markets. You will find that many of
the vacancies advertised in our classified
section are for skilled engineers and accountants,
industrial managers and people in the medical
professions, computer programmers and architects,
teachers and lab technicians.
Trades & Crafts
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
There are jobs for tradesmen too - bricklayers,
plasterers, shutterers, site workers, riggers, and
pipe-fitters. Craftsmen and craftswomen of all kinds
are in great demand worldwide.
Adventure seekers
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For students, young people, or those of any age who
simply want to work their way around the world, the
opportunities are there for the taking. Summer camps
in the USA, voluntary work in Africa, teaching English
in Japan, bar work in the Mediterranean, reps in
European ski resorts, nannies, au pairs, sports
instructors in holiday centres, exchange visits,
kibbutz and farm work, supervising children, caretaking
in camp sites - the opportunities are endless.
Tens of thousands of people have already found
fascinating new lives abroad thanks to OVERSEAS JOBS
EXPRESS.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
:::: PART TWO - WHAT OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS OFFERS ::::
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Most issues contain about 50% recruitment ads, 50%
editorial. The ads are important but so are our
stories and features. They will give you an insider's
view on living and working in the country of your
choice.
In addition, our reporters have exposed many scams by
those who try to exploit overseas job-hunters. Don't
get caught! Regular reading of OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS
will alert you to the traps.
What kinds of jobs will you find in OVERSEAS JOBS
EXPRESS?
A typical issue will contain over 1,500 current jobs
covering all professions, trades and employment
possibilities.
There will be 10 pages or more of up-to-date news
about working abroad ... plus advice ... plus the
experiences of readers abroad ... plus information
about new opportunities ... plus readers' letters
and OJE answers packed with expert advice.
There's a job for you in OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS. Here
are some of the job categories in each issue.

::::::::: PART THREE - THE OJE LABELS SERVICE :::::::::
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
The first step to finding a job abroad is to get your
CV or resume on the right desk. Here's how our labels
service can help.
We have a constantly updated database of thousands of
companies, agencies and individuals looking for staff
to fill positions overseas. With our labels service,
you can reach these employers direct.
Choose your category and we will supply you with
professionally printed labels from our database.
Not only that. To help you match your skills,
qualifications and aspirations to the most appropriate
employer, we will include a brief description of each
company or agency - what it does, where it operates
and the people it needs.
Don't forget that, as with OVERSEAS JOBS EXPRESS, we
are providing you with the names of employers who
want to recruit NON-NATIONALS. Ninety-nine per cent
of recruiters you read about elsewhere want to hire
nationals of the country in which they operate. But
not the recruiters we tell you about. They want YOU
because they need imported skills.
In addition, we give you fax and phone numbers when
available to help you follow up on your CV or resume.
These are the labels we currently have available. If
there are any you would like to order, make a note of
the name then go to the fifth and final part of this
brochure to find out how to do so:-
