Indian jobs?

[Geoff Hart <ghart -at- videotron -dot- ca>]

Sandy Harris notes: <<I'm ready to move on, I'd even like to get real  
job again, but I'm not really wanting to leave Asia. The obvious  
possibility would be India, probably Bangalore. I've sent off a few  
resumes via Monster India without much reaction. I suspect they're  
mostly looking for cheap new grads.>>

You should probably join the Technical Writers of India (http:// 
groups.yahoo.com/group/technical_writers_india/) group and ask your  
question there. Nice bunch of people, and a lot of job opportunities  
get advertised in the e-mailings. Don't forget to broaden your search  
to include Hyderabad (Cyberabad <g>), another major IT source. Beyond  
that, I have only a sketchy knowledge of the employment situation in  
India, so I can't really provide any better advice.

I suspect you may face the same challenge finding work in India that  
you found initially in China: getting your foot in the door. India is  
not China, but while I was there, I got a strong sense that starting  
with relationships before getting down to business is equally  
important in both cultures. A pleasant task, fortunately!
