EHM Q: National Teams

[DeToxRox]

How long do Gms normally last for a National team, and how do you deem yourself qualified enough to get the job?

Anyone here have any experience at the helm of one yet?

[Karim]

I've had this question too. Will I ever get the chance to apply for a national team or will I be approached? Even though my nationality is Canadian, could I apply to coach another nation's team?

Hopefully someone who is farther along may have some answers.

"How long do they last"
Depends how good they are really ;)

"Deem yourself qualified"
As with most jobs - you're qualified when you get it, a lot depends on the stature of the nation involved obviously ... for a major nation you'll need to be a 'face', for a more minor one if you're a professional coach you're probably in with a chance ...

"will I be approached"
It is possible - if you really want a job though its best to pre-empt things and send in a CV (ie. apply).
