Hi friends, I have been working in the Software Testing field (Manual and Automation) for 8 years now and would like to start finding a job abroad anywhere except for the Gulf countries. I have a passport but no visa to any country as yet. I have been Googling the best consultants in Chennai for work abroad and also using sites like Sulekha. I did find a few consultants through them. However, the problem is when I rank them or visited them in person, they all asked me to pay a deposit of 10K-25K INR. I am quite unsure about this because I have heard a few cases (and even read online in various forums) where the consultants first get you a job and when you are placed, they will take an agreed percentage from your salary for the agreed number of months. I do not mind paying an upfront fee, but I do not want to be scammed.
Things to Look Out for When Applying to Consultancies
So, what are the things I should look out for when applying to these consultancies? Also, if you can "suggest" (and not just give me a list because a list of consultancies is there on Google anyway), some reputed consultancies that have experience in finding people jobs abroad, then please let me know.
I appreciate your time and advice on this.
Regards,
Bhavani
