Hi everyone.
I'm a South African woman who plans to move to New York but I do have
some unresolved issues
I've been practising law as an advocate for a period of almost 5 years(admitted in terms of SA laws and I did pass my Bar Exam). I'm already bussy with the arrangements of rellocating and I will be prepared to grab any decent job that I can get in NY, for starters.
Moving to NY its like a dream come true for me but I can't take my mind off the following issues.:
* Is such a move a good and proper decision?
* Is it practically possible to make such a move and make it in NY?
* I'm a dermined, hardworker and a go getter, will that be enough to motivate me to stay and make it big there?
* Will my legal experiance and qualifications be taken into into consideration?
* Is my SA Law degree recognised in NY?
* Does it count at all that I will be a foreigner during the job hunting?
* How much of job opportunities availlable for foreigners like me?
* ALL IN ALL, IS IT POSSIBLE FOR A PERSON LIKE ME TO MAKE IT THERE?
When it comes to family I have siblings, I even intend to start my own family there.
I would appreciate to get as much imput as possible, including from the people who rellocated to NY from other countries.
PLEASE ASSIST.
