Finding a job overseas to live as an expat?

It can be done at the entry level, but it will be hard.

If you want to do it, set aside 1 year (yes) of living expenses and move to your target market. Find cheap accommodation. Make sure your technical skills are up to par (e.g. quant finance if you go that route) and start networking. Use LinkedIn and start with alumni of your school in any field - ask them for coffees to pick their brain about living in the country etc. When you get meetings, have a <1 min story about yourself to introduce yourself and your mission & reason for being in Asia, and be a personable guy. Do this a hundred times and rock an interview or two and you'll have a job, although it may not be your dream job right off the bat - anything that gets you in the door and with the right visa is enough to get started.

Getting a couple years' experience as a quant in a bank (for example) would make this exact process much easier, for what it's worth.
