Have you ever asked yourself, can I work after Bachelor’s degree or attend graduate school in U.S., if so, what are the job opportunities in U.S.?
Well, it was not tough decision for me, I was much determined to study in U.S. and never did think about finding job after Bachelor’s degree. So, many students have asked me, how much will I get paid after Master’s degree, can I find a job ‘easily’ after graduation. Job search is another big topic to talk about and soon I’m going to write articles for current students on internship and job search.
But, from my job search experience and from what I saw how my friends got job, I have a good idea on how to get a job in U.S. and how long it would typically take for a student after graduation to find a job. Answer to that depends on what approach student takes to find the job. There are so many ways to look for job. First thing that would come to person mind is Google search and then move on to other job posting sites. but, they all end up getting the job.
So, job search itself a job, but the fact is you can find a good job, high paying one, even with no work experience. There is no shadow of doubt that, student will have to go back to native country without finding a job during OPT period ( 1 year after graduation ). Some student get low paying job, some find high paying job and it really depends on the location, job nature, company performance, …
To answer the question from the first sentence of this article, I strongly recommend students to study in U.S. The exposure you get, research projects you get to work with, technology to learn is much more when compared to studying Master’s degree in India ( unless its IIT, ..). Students will get hands on experience in implementing research projects.
I have told many times to my friends that amount of knowledge I gained by working in one project in 1 course in 1 semester is much more than what I learned in Bachelor’s degree in 1 semester. That’s the nature and quality of the of the education in U.S. colleges and universities.

will be waitin for that blog. there is one more important thing u need to tell us. how imp is the location of a college wrt jobs. example. ppl say u have to apply online to get jobs in electrical domain,but if u study in texas or california. its a lot easier. studying in a good univ with a job guarantee in the same field is of equal importance.
tell us where to draw the line in choosing a university based on its location. to what extent can v compromise on the univ?
example: is clemson,being a univ city good for studying ee(it has a great course) while v have to apply for jobs online.
sdsu has a good course and is located in san diego where getting an ee job is not difficult.but the course is relatively not as good as in clemson
WHAT DO V DO?

@ Rahul
University dosen’t matter. With no work experience, when you graduate, you are looking at $45,000 to $80,000 per year depending on the city/state.
