French looking for advices to work in US

Hello all, I'm working for a life insurance company as an asset manager and I'm looking for opportunities in US. It seems to be very difficult to find a job without an american degree, so I was wondering whether it would be better to go to the US to pass a MBA or some other american degree, or just to come and try to directly find a job?

PS: I have a master in finance and 3 years of experience as analyst and fixed income portfolio manager with 900 millions under management

Thanks in advance for the advices.
