Canada to US move

I have a few years experience in Canada at pension fund/ m&a role. Looking to hear from people who have moved from Canada to US mid-market PE/ corp dev roles/ capital market roles.

Did you consider doing an MBA to make that switch? Was the job search difficult? Any tips on networking/ recruiting?Preference for location - NY/ SF?

Keeping it broad intentionally - hoping to learn from variety of experiences.
