Abstract: More employees now have careers in international work (i.e. across countries) than before, some abroad but increasingly more in domestic jobs with international responsibilities (DJIRs). Theory has not caught up with these trends. This paper uses constructs from social cognitive career theory (SCCT) to propose explanations of how interest develops in careers in international work abroad and at home, contrasting explanations for the two types of work.
