问题     Interest in pursuing international careers has soared in recent years, enhanced by chronic (长久的) personnel shortages that are causing companies to search beyond their home borders for talent.
    Professionals seek career experience outside their home countries for a variety of reasons. They may feel the need to recharge their batteries with a new challenge.

For example, university education is often referred to as "tertiary education" in the United Kingdom, but this term is rarely used in the United States. A reader who is unfamiliar with these variations may assume that your contains errors.
