According to a Pew Research study, a staggering 93% of Americans who have a 4-year or higher college degree, have traveled internationally, and about 70% of those have visited 3 or more countries. This is a staggeringly high number – and critically important to modern careers in a globalized world. If you have not traveled, your career opportunities will be limited.

Perhaps more surprising – between 1 in 4 and 1 in 3 American residents have lived abroad, worked abroad or studied abroad. Wow. And the figure may even be higher than that.
