Hi just curious on the opportunity to work abroad with a US pharmD. Is it easy? Any thoughts? thanks

Like how far abroad? If you are thinking about working within the developed countries of Europe, Canada, etc....its as difficult to become licensed there as here - unless you work on a US base stationed abroad.

In third world countries, you can go with an organized "group" - Doctors Across Borders" for example & provide services within the scope of what the group is there for.

Otherwise - its tough. (I had a friend who grew up & went to school in S Africa & became licensed there - emigrated to Israel - had to provide documentation of schooling & take the boards there in Hebrew - both oral & written. She emigrated later to Canada & said that licensing process was pretty easy & now she is going thru her licesing process here - so far 2 years into it).
 
I was thinking of working for the d. of defense. You might want to look into the foreign service. sometimes they have expat hospitals too. if you find anything, please, let's share our findings!
