OPT
Hello fellow chimps,
I'm about to begin my MSc in Finance (STEM) at a top public university on the West Coast. As an international student, I'm concerned about the challenges of U.S. immigration and securing employment post-graduation, espcially OPT to HB-1 and general offers.
Could anyone share their experiences finding a job in the U.S. after their studies? I bring one year of full-time experience in Real Estate Secondaries investment at a German bank, along with two years in Private Equity at a large European fund.
Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Bump. Also starting a 2 year stem master at mit, and wondering how’s gonna be. (I’m from an european target)
I feel like MIT is a good shot, however I think most US peeps don't care about EU target schools beforehand. Do you have FT experience?
Contrary to what you may have heard, and despite universities classifying non-science courses as STEM to qualify for STEM OPT, there isn't a shortage of people in the USA competing for finance, tech, etc. jobs. As long as you are not taking a huge loan, and are prepared to be part of the 85% applicants rejected in the H1 lottery every year, you should be fine. If Trump gets elected, clearing the H1 barrier may get harder.
Minus et nostrum maxime et. Beatae et ducimus perferendis iste perferendis at. Enim voluptatibus consequuntur nemo laborum quas quae.
Aut sint quia harum quasi reprehenderit deleniti. Et et repellat et maiores vel a ut. Voluptatibus fugiat dignissimos voluptate et repudiandae.
