Much time, thought, and labor are required. Many international students come to the U.S. to earn their MBA and expect to land a lucrative job with a U.S. multinational and work in the states for a few years or indefinitely. Unfortunately, this does not always happen for foreign nationals. Companies without immediate international plans may have no need for international students and do not even consider them. Most employers that do consider foreign national students are interested in hiring them to return home to work in subsidiaries there rather than in the U.S. Securing employment in the United States is very challenging for international students.
Employers expect international students to be well-versed in American language and culture.
Furthermore, they expect you to possess a thorough understanding of the needs of the industry and the company. Experience in the industry is very important to employers. Oftentimes companies view international students with no professional US-based experience as most valuable in their home country or region immediately. The biggest obstacle to obtaining employment in the U.S. for foreign nationals is the lack of a work visa. Unfortunately, there is not much a student can do to remove this obstacle.
