The country hosts 8% of the expat population. It is followed by Germany (7% of the global expats population) the UK (6%), and the UAE (6%). Most expats in the USA are on assignment by their employer, according to the InterNations Expat Insider 2015 survey, while an above average number of expats in Germany, UK and the UAE found a job on their own. Another interesting finding was that 80% of the people living in one of these top 4 countries consider themselves generally satisfied with their expat life. Further findings about expats job satisfaction revealed that on average 64% of the global expat population are satisfied with their work abroad. Expatriates in the USA (68%) and in Germany (69%) show a higher satisfaction rate regarding their job abroad.
