What countries are the best for an IT career?


HSBC has released a ranking of the best countries for career-driven expats, based on its latest expat explorer report.
The bank had YouGov survey nearly 27,000 expats from 190 countries and territories for the report, asking them about how easy it was for them to live, work, and raise a family where they were.
HSBC has tallied the results based on careers, looking at things like career progression, work-life balance, employment benefits, and other factors. (Pay is also factored in, but is not the deciding factor.)
Check it out which countries made the top 10:
1 :- Switzerland
Average expat salary: $188,275.
HSBC says: "For the second year in a row, Switzerland is ranked the best all-round destination for a career abroad. The country combines the best earning prospects with a good work-life balance and an excellent work culture. The average annual expat income in Switzerland is $188,275, almost twice the global average of $97,419."
2:- Germany
Average expat salary: $97,693.
Germany is the best destination for expats who main priority is acquiring new skills, followed by job security and career progression, according to HSBC. 70% of expats say job security is better than their home country.
3:- Sweden
Average expat salary: $84,802.
71% of expats who go to Sweden to work say the work culture is an improvement on their native country. Dean Blackburn, Head of HSBC Expat, says: "According to our survey, Europe is home to some of the best destinations for a successful expat career. Six European countries have made their way into the top 10 and are recognised for their strong work culture, great work-life balance and relatively good job security."
4:- United Arab Emirates
Average expat salary: $112,820.
56% of expats receive an accommodation allowance in the UAE, according to HSBC, and 75% receive health benefits.
5:- Norway
Average expat salary: $97,486.
Norway is a newcomer to the top 10 this year and HSBC says that across all countries surveyed expats working in Norway had the biggest improvement in their work-life balance, with 87% of respondents citing this.
6:- Singapore
verage expat salary: $138,641.
Like Hong Kong, Singapore is a great place to progress a career but not the best for work-life balance. 62% of expats here said they had made progress in their careers but 30% reported a decline in living standards. However, 53% of expats working in Singapore said they felt more fulfillment in their jobs.
7:- Austria​
Average expat salary: $85,288.
Like Britain, it's Austria's first time in the top 10 this year. Austria rates highly for work-life balance — 71% of respondents highlighted this as a benefit — and work culture, with 62% of expats reporting improvement on their native jobs market.
8:- Hong Kong
Average expat salary: $169,756.
Hong Kong is a great place for expats looks to further their career but not for those looking for a better quality of life, according to HSBC. 68% of respondents said this was a good place to further their career but 50% said their work-life balance had worsened since moving to Hong Kong.
9:- United Kingdom
Average expat salary: $83,227.
It's the UK's first time in the top 10 for expats (although note that the survey was done prior to the Brexit vote — things may have changed since them.) HSBC says: "Expats in Britain [are] among the most likely in the world to pick up new skills compared to their home country (64%) and progress their career (62%)."
10:- Bahrain
Average expat salary: $98,622.
65% of expats receive an annual allowance for trips home in Bahrain as part of their job, according to HSBC. Across the Middle East, 91% of expats report some kind of benefit as part of their contract, compared to a global average of 67%.

The Real Friend There's a tremendous difference between alone and lonely. You could be lonely in a group of people. I like being alone. I like eating by myself. I go home at night and just watch a movie or hang out with my dog. I have to exert myself and really say, oh God, I've got to see my friends 'cause I'm too content being by myself. He is the real friend in my life, everyone should think & try to love them lots as a well wisher.

How can I convince myself to leave my job?

If your boss or Management is the problem… If you’re dealing with a difficult boss,& Worst Management get clear on the biggest issue first. What do you need from your boss to eliminate some of your stress? Is it less management? More management? Or a complete personality overhaul? If it’s something that can be fixed (like more or better communication), start by scheduling a meeting and asking for what you need. If you answered “a complete personality overhaul,” consider your options. Can you make a lateral move within your company? Is there a way to shift who manages you? Can you work with a mentor to help you talk with your boss? Or is this a big enough issue it’s time to move on to the next job? Think about your best, most realistic option, and then move toward it. If your work is the problem… Step one of dealing with your work is to get clear on what part of your work is causing you the most pain. Do you feel like you’re bad at your job?

As a non-Kannadiga, do you speak Kannada as you're living in Bengaluru?

Hi Bengaluru I am from Odisha, & I am Staying in Karnataka from Past 4 years. Let me Explain Something Kannadigga Kannadigas  are simple, pure hearted, humble, soft spoken, broad minded, open hearted, and easy going, just to think a few qualities. In my perspective, this is quite common in the bigger cities of Karnataka like  Bengaluru , Mysuru, Tumkur, and so on. In most of the northern part of Karnataka, the qualities remain same except soft spoken. The dialect appears to be rude but the purity & simplicity in their lifestyle out-beats the southern part. Overall, the purity of the heart with which  Kannadigas  accept people is a unique quality comparing it with other states in general. They don't force you to learn their language. In fact, it's the other way around. They adapt to your language. It took a while for me to learn Kannada because everybody in Bangalore speaks either Hindi or Telugu! They are used to being around people who are fr...
