Hey /trv/
I normally travel out of the country during the Spring/Summer semester but this (school)year I feel it'll be more fiscally responsible and probably better career wise to begin exploring work opportunities abroad.
The problem is I have no clue where to look for these kind of things, most websites I've been to seem to be more about education abroad rather than work and often have $1000+ application and program fees, so that I can work somewhere? Which makes no sense to me.
So does anyone have any resources they'd like to suggest? I'll probably talk to the my school sometime this week to see if they have anything but I figured I'd be proactive and start researching now.

Should probably mention I'm Canadian and an Architecture student.
My shortlist right now country wise though I'm open to most places.
Australia
Hong Kong
Germany
UK
Coastal US
elsewhere in Canada
even if your info doesn't relate to my education or desired locations I'm sure other people would like to hear you advice/experience

There's your problem.
Its a massively oversupplied industry, add to that the fact that most architects work in small companies that don't generate enough work to warrant interns is why people will get you to pay for internships/experience.
Also its a very western centric job, in most countries 'architecture' is handled by the builders building the house or the engineers during the plans. For this reason you wont see many jobs overseas in many less well off countries, except maybe for very big buildings or houses with rich occupants. Even in places like eastern Europe you can clearly see at the design of new houses they don't use architects (hence why everything looks drab and shitty).
My idea is maybe look into those big housing community development people in your country, they would probably need a lot of architects.
