These National Examinations include the special examinations of the diplomatic personnel for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, international commercial personnel for the MOEA, TAITRA and other Ministries.
The objectives for this study were to discuss: 1. How does the overseas adaptation influence the job performance of the official expatriates in the U.S.A. and Japan? 2. Has the environmental difference generated a moderating effect towards the overseas adaptation and job performance?
