Remote work in USA has taught managers that most jobs in tech and business analysis can be outsourced to India. It is quite common now for the H1B jobs to be replaced by an IT job in Hyderabad, Bangalore or Chennai. One should realize that American companies are very much into cost cutting and profit maximization and are very good in shareholder driven business. H1B should have a plan B in all cased of returning to India.
@@sr-xd8jb not true. Silicon Valley routinely pays 300 to 500 k per year which is way higher than what people get in India. Starting salaries in india are way lower. Only VP and CTO level people and CEO make great money. Also note the huge trend among the medium and smaller companies in USA in terms of outsourcing. Finally this is increasing beyond Bangalore and many smaller towns in the north and east have now started seeing outsourcing
@@sr-xd8jb From an American company perspective there is a lot of room left in cost arbitrage given they care about the actual dollar rupee rate. Huge savings result from outsourcing even now. 20 years ago the dollar was 40 rupees. Of course the salaries of it people in India has improved a lot which is great.
@@Drgangulihow many can land a job in Silicon Valley? Rhee rents and cost of living are freaking expensive.
@@sakethreddy4450 true
That's nonsense. And above all Indian cities are the most dirty, filthy and stinking in the world. That's a fact. Disgusting. So who can goes away.
I was in US from 2011-2017, realised quickly about the visa and green card trap...moved back to India...best decision ever
A lot of these companies who are not willing to sponsor a visa don't even consider the notion of a 3-year stay on OPT and STEM extension. It's funny that 3 years is still longer than their mean employee attrition rate, but they still cry because no sponsorship means we can't be a "long-term employee". Big problem.
Bhai mere even if let’s say average marriage lasts 5 years. Will you marry a girl who says she gonna leave you in 6 years?
@@cairnhill64 Marriage wasn't created for a six year tenure as you said, but the US government specifically made the OPT so we'd get experience and leave the country. The companies and the govt cannot find common footing here as we are eligible to work, but we can't.
Understand that some people cannot be openly r @ci$t in 2024 so they use subtle policy to do their dirty work
If India is great then why look elsewhere?
Ego
Money
1:04 After staying there for a year, I was asked to move to US. I didn't apply for L1, thank god...
True.
Don’t even look elsewhere
Its not ..its great only in social media..still its a poor country
I am an undergraduate student in US and I echo everything said in the video. I am on non-stem finance bachelors and its very difficult to find companies that sponsor. I had final rounds at Bulge Bracket for investment banking but was rejected because of visa status despite having near to perfect GPA and co-curriculars.
Thanks for sharing, which college are you attending?
Well, you are non-stem. This was expected. RUclips videos showed this already so one has to be ready for this. For stem it's 50-50 chances so people sometimes are shocked that they have to return to a country like India
Have you considered the EU especially Germany or Switzerland with finance background? Maybe Canada. I think the US is going backwards on immigration
@@frankcb11canada is tough now
So bro, what do you plan to do now ? Seriously, I am very confused. I wish to do MS but scared to proceed further considering the present scenario. Is taking 50 lakhs loan worth it do MS. Pls reply.
My parents came to America in 1970 when I was a little boy. I don’t remember it, but my mother told me we all got our Green Cards right there at the airport upon arrival. Now, from what I’ve told, an Indian citizen coming to America today has to wait nearly 100 years to get his Green Card. Why do I mention this? Well, if my parents had stayed in India, then I would have been raised in India and I wouldn’t even consider moving to a foreign country. I honestly feel my life in India would have, in some ways, actually been better had we not moved to America. My advice to Indians: Opportunities in India are getting better, and if you have a good job in India, then stay in India. America isn’t worth because they’ve made it too difficult. I will move back to India after retirement.
If any youngster is trying to decide, here are my two cents: Don't go abroad if you have to take even a dollar of debt. It's just not worth the risk. Just accept you cannot afford it. If you get funding or pay out of pocket, then sure, go for it even in this economy (I will not recommend your parents selling your only house or having zero cash in hand to fund you). As for non-Stem subjects, I will say that non-stem students should try to go abroad even more as in India you can learn science subjects well but social science and humanities are only taught at a good standard in the West. Good luck.
Absolutely amazing video Mam. Every word spoken is true.
Glad you liked it
It’s good to provide true awareness, so people can decide what to do. Great work.
Imagine came back India with 60 laks student debt
😂😂😂😂😂
Living in hell
Some advice from an American. The USA needs to fill a lot of trade (blue collar) jobs. Indian students should widen the net of job positions they apply for. Try applying for trade jobs such as plumbing, carpentry, and welding. Get job training in India in a trade before coming to the US to study for a degree in technology.
good advice really, only these students never think of other options
Phds have top notch options, trust me , even more than lingering on stupid H1Bs with even $100ks, Phd gets top points on immigration system or Australia, /Canada even Golden visa for UAE. What she hasxsaid is 100 % correct, in EU, you need local language to get a good, professional career
I'm planning to change my domain..ms in aerospace engineering and PhD in this domain a good choice for a international student ?
@@sbnerji12555 Any Ph.d is excellent if one is research career oriented; aerospace is like icing on cake, not many enrol for doctoral degrees especially from India unlike CS or MBA
A very basic Question. Why are people so desperate for H1B Visa or wanting to stay in US, no matter what it takes. Is it just because of some more dollars or some kinda status symbol?
I lived in US on L1B Visa sometime back. After spending 5 years there, I prefered to relocate myself & family back to India with whatever I could manage to save. Initially, it was difficult thing to manage, especially for kids. But, after few months, I was alright and now, I don't regret my decision. Even after 10 years of relocating to India, my both kids haven't given up their American accent and whatever the good discipline they learnt in US. I travel abroad as tourist atleast twice or thrice a year. No regrets at all.
My comment is only about finding faculty positions after a ph. D. in USA. On plus side, a university H1B does not go through the H1B lottery system, and is granted if application meets all USCIS requirements. But, to get faculty position in even in a B grade US university is very hard. You have to have top notch writing skills, in addition to being a top notch STEM researcher. There are many STEM Indians, who are good writers, but most fall short in this area, because honing great writing skills, takes at least a decade of concerted effort and practice. To, my shock, I knew a UCLA ph. D. American in Mathematics, whose writing skill is truly amazing. Even, he could land a teaching job in a community college only. I know also of a M. S. in Mathematics from India, a green card holder, who was rejected for teaching job even in a community college, because of poor writing skills. Yes, this may come as a shock, but writing skills are a factor, even when being hired as a Mathematics teacher.
What you have told that indian salaries is uncomparable to US. Students like you under misconceptions about india. US is overhyped and many universities not worth studying there.
Good points. In the USA, J.P Morgan Chase has stopped H-1B sponsorship, but Amazon still offers sponsorship. There are so many qualified people looking for employment in the USA now that companies won't move an employee outside the USA just to retain them. If you can't demonstrate your value to the company, you are replaceable.
why does ur lips move in different way and u say something different..XD

Your videos are excellent on all aspects of the subject and really helpful in taking informed decision i
Does studing in US or any foreign nation should automatically get job?? Are the goal of student to get job only or to acquire knowledge?? I know 99% students study abroad just for job in nation where they study not for acquiring knowledge.

Why are people leaving their family and going to USA?
Ma'am, my son has an admit for masters in data science in NYU. Is the course worth the price and what does ur job prospects increase with a better University
Good university. But if you're stretching yourself financially too much no university is worth it. With time restrictions on finding a job, the risk is too high.

Indians leave for US because the dollor rate is high.
If the dollor rate is down Indians would not prefer US.
In US unless both the couple work can't lead a comfortable family life.
In India if both couple are working can save , one side salary.
These days companies are paying good salaries in India.
In India cost of living is very low compared to US.
It is better to come back to India , it is good in short and long term.
As a bachelor how much you can save in US in Indian currency, that much can be saved in India.

Great words 👏
Our Vishwaguru holding political science maths n science degree provided 20 crore jobs last 10 years ....come back. BTW the US needs indias minorities dont waste ur time!
Ache din in India due to modi. Why going to USA??
Need to understand noof H1B are limited and there aremore aplicants. So this is bound to happen. Bachelors H1B is 65000 whereas 20000 for those with Masters. Most from India are with Masters.
It's high time US sheds its luxury( at the cost of the rest of world)- and carey its begging bowl.
cant employees apply for L1 visa of yours?
PhD id not easy. It take s a lot of time. After PhD research work or teaching assignment are not easy. They can only be contract assignment. I knoiiw enough people who had to return.
One more idea. Indian industries can send their best candidates to USA universities for their specific higher skills. This will give a chance for higher education to individuals and also high skills for indian industries.
Start creating your own company- create jobs. Being in the West is not the ultimate goal of our lives. You can do a lot better when you live at home.
there are young people with age 20-25 who got migrated on family based migration, they are very lucky ones, no immigration tension from Day 1
Tomorrow never dies.
It's good sign for Indian & Indian society. Real educated talent coming back.
I know people who did not succeed in 3 lottery trials after Bachelors. So he has now joined Masters course to continue on Student visa..
Take it as a blessing in disguise! 👍Waiting for a GC while having an H1B is a waste of the best years of your life.
Chirag Subramanium got more famous from Walgreens he is very happy
WHY GO !!!
Students means study and go back , U.S. does not garuntee or set you up permanent here.
Students are just that and are supposed to return after their studies. So what is the problem??

Doing ph.d in computer science after ms in computer science is the right decision now?
Ma'am is ms in aerospace engineering and phd in the same domain a good choice? I want to work for NASA and also interested in research 😅
I have 1.5yrs of experience in the IT industry
😂😂😂
@@BobJindal are you illiterate uncle?
Please check out the profiles of people working in NASA and look at their education background
find out if NASA allows non citizens to work. it may be like a gov job requiring citizens or permanent residents only
be careful about phd, do it only if needed and it will be 5 years of almost no earning under a supervisor thy may or may not be cruel. phd should be thought of in depth as it can sometimes ruin your prime earning age
Better change your stream because as far as I know job opportunities is completely zero in Aerospace domain, even aerospace companies doesn’t hire aerospace and prefer mechanical , electrical and software engineers.
Do people who goes for masters in us have right to stay for only 5y without job or with job(without h1b)

may or may not be a major that gets you a job. right now employers dont care about new graduates as the market has many experienced people already applying for jobs and taking paycuts.
really think if you wanna come to the US- it is getting bad over here.
Too many layoffs, price increase for everything and wage cuts or job cuts. US is not what it used to be- even ppl have become lesss friendly as they see immigrants as job stealers that work for less.
if u can, find a country with work life balance- it is a hell hole here
