Since January 2013, Dubai has been the most sought-after location amongst US citizens searching for jobs when they are considering working abroad,” Aetna said in a statement.

Aetna International said it had looked at Google trends data for the world’s 40 largest countries and their capitals since 2006 to reach its findings.

“Compared with 2006, US citizens appear to be considering a far broader range of countries than ever before when it comes to working abroad,” said Caroline Pain, marketing director Aetna International,

“Dubai has now overtaken London as the most popular city for Americans looking for jobs overseas.  It’s also interesting to see Paris becoming the third most-searched global city, pushing Singapore down the table,” Pain said.
