Looking for opportunities by country or continent is easy with Open Opportunities.
On the left of your screen (or at the top if you are using a mobile) is what we call the filters list, a list of fields that you can use to help you find what you need. Individual search filters sit in ‘trays’ and can be open or closed using the ^ icons on the right hand side of the tray. By default the Open / Closed and Keyword filters are open so that you can use them immediately.
Scroll down until you see the Country field and expand the tray using the small down arrow at the right of the tray.
Expanding the Country tray will show you a search field for both continents and countries, where you can select the countries or continents that you wish to see in your results. When you expand the Country tray, you will see a list of languages and a search field. You can use this search field to quickly find the country you are looking for.
You can see from the screenshots below, that if you search for a country by name, this will limit your options. So typing 'america' will give you the option to select 'United States of America' or 'American Somoa' both countries are in the continents of North America and Oceania respectively. Selecting a continent will automatically populate the country list with all of the countries in the chosen continent. Here you can see all of the countries in the Oceania continent.

Users can then choose to exclude specific countries if they need to. For instance this is a search for “business” in Oceania without Australia.
