Most of the typologies in literature model international work experience as a single career step in work life. In doing so, they omit a long-term career perspective including multiple career moves in different foreign countries as are typical for so-called global careers (Mäkelä and Suutari 2009). To manage these global careers successfully, detailed knowledge about individual, organizational and societal needs is necessary. However, only few research studies about global careerists exist to date.
