Abstract: International students' job search experience encompasses cultural and learning experiences from home and host country living. The higher education-to-work transition of international students to meet their career goal of working in the United States requires the attention of both international students and higher education administrators. This literature review explores the intersection of the international student experience, their career development, and the advising/support received by career services professionals. A clearer understanding of international students through a six-dimension binary cultural lens (Hofstede, 2011) affords career services professionals the knowledge to work with students' existing understanding of home and host cultural norms and job seeking.
