In my opinion, recessions are a good time for doing a PhD degree. Universities are the best places to hide during a recession.

[@invaderg3332]

Thank you for the advice. Would you say the same thing to older unmarried people. I"m really fucking up with my chances of a good suitor if I go get a degree. And I won't even do Phd, probably masters. My chances of getting into an excellent institution is laughable. My only solace is that I'm in a high paying industry that gives me more money than the average salary in Europe for the same job.

[@user-bo4vf3pz6u]

I have been residing in the USA for over 10 years and currently hold a Green Card. I work in a mid-level management position at a leading technology firm. If you were to ask me in 2024+, I strongly advise against coming to the USA for a career in computer science/IT. Job opportunities are increasingly shifting towards India, particularly in offshore positions. Currently, there are graduates from prestigious institutions such as MIT, Stanford, and UC Berkeley seeking employment in the USA, leading to intense competition. Additionally, an interesting observation is that my American boss has offered me a promotion if I recruit individuals in India and form a team based there, as it offers a significantly better return on investment.

[@banditonehundred]

My boss asked me the same 10 years ago. I moved, and built a team of over 100 people in India. Best decision I’ve made

Tbh, university ranking really does not matter here in USA. If you have the skills required for a job, you will easily land a job (depending on the market situation). 80k-120k USD is an average salary is what you can expect irrespective of other factors.

Thanks harnoor for the video, but only one thing I would like to say anyone going abroad for masters/work do not worry there are still jobs and plenty of opportunities but only for SKILLED INDIVIDUALS, so keep hustling if you have skills you will definietley end up at very good place. For eg, those who were really skilled and got laid off they are still doing well some got even better jobs, some started their own business so they just took it as opportunity and the people who actually didn't saw any layoff/recession majorly are the ones talking much around recession.

[@TheUmaragu]

I agree; a very small percentage of the Graduates from US universities from India land a job. The strategy during these harder times would be to find internships, while studying, and also to start the job hunt quite early and not wait till the end of graduation.

[@sharmavikas212]

thanks Tarique Ahraf for showing such a genuine picture

[@shyamdedaniya2056]

Doesn’t matter whichever university you attend, you have to stand in line for a job..

If you're mediocre and/or above average or average joe, I suggest this: 1. Avoid 1 year program 2. Avoid too much loan.

[@rohangupta1411]

What makes you say the first point tho,do you have any credible resource to confirm,just asking.

[@Sanyu-Tumusiime]

Use your brain. 1 year program means that you don't have time to do INTERNSHIP or MAKE CONNECTIONS which means that your job search will become impossible. You'll have to go back to India after your program. It's not necessarily a bad thing. if you want to go back to india, go back. More power to you! GO BACK TO INDIA YOU INDIANS!!!!@@rohangupta1411

[@R0H00]

@@rohangupta1411 I watched and also heard the same stories over and over from mediocre students. Even if you watch the entire video he is also indirectly discouraging 1 year programs.

[@sagarranjan4585]

​@@rohangupta1411if you were really aware, you'd know that 90% of 1 year program do not have an internship program. So mediocre candidate would have a mediocre work ex and grades before. Not enough to secure a full time without a summer internship.

Same truth in Australia as well. People from child care, aged care are straight away taken as leads and delivery managers. It really hurts when you are holding a masters degree and 3-5 yrs of work exp and still doesn’t even get an interview call. One more problem in USA is people are doing 2-3 IT jobs ilegaly which is eating up opportunities for many students

[@krishnarana5913]

5 years ago I ran into came to know 3 people. They tried 3 years still was not getting job. Finally I asked them a question how long you're going to hang around. Is it worth it or you go back home with your family and start something there? In 6 months later I heard they all went back home. You got to know when it's over and when you don't need to waste your time. You need to know your deadline

I have some things to point out in this video. It's okay that he is correct in his way. I am currently an undergrad here, and to be honest I would say making connections as Indian is the easiest way. Right now I am in Phi Theta Kappa in my college. I easily have a large number of connections where I get into colleges like NYU, NJIT, and Rutgers.

[@simpley6256]

I/m surprised he being an MBA scholar doesn't see this. The US economy is dwindling. With decreasing sell of US treasury bills, and recently 30 year US treasury bond yield going unsold, the USD's value is going down. More and more businesses are switching their bases to India and other Asian countries and targeting clients more in and around South East Asia and Middle East and this could be one of the reasons for mass lay offs and no new hiring. Also, with rising multi-currency/bilateral trading currencies/deals increasing globally, the difficult task for the US is that even if America brings industries home, then the entire pay-scale to the salary value has to be reset and be brought down to cover expenses along with massive job cuts. Add to this, the cut-offs in even benefits. Thinks are looking bleak for the US, as of now. You'd be surprised there are already so many Westerners and US citizens of Indian origins who have started "hunting down real estates/properties/land" in India and the South-East Asia .

Almost 35 years ago, my brother-in-law used to say that he did graduation graduation Bombay I I T. Everybody knows how difficult it is . He was a polo engineer. He worked there also in India. Then he did his p h d in Polymer signs in w state University of michigan. Most smartest down-to-earth person I came to know in my life. He always says it's not important which University or college you go name has nothing to do with it. Grow yourself. That's all matters.. When he was starting, he was teaching also and he did receive from student as a best teacher Award. Which recommended by the student I believe it did twice. He passed over five years ago with a blood cancer. And I see he work till the end. 1 week before he passed over his job. Working from home company was great with him because he was dead genius. And sometimes you're lucky to find that kind of company and engineering that they're also nice.
