Subject: Job Opportunities in India after Diploma in abroad
Date: 13-Aug-2002
Question: I am a student from India currently studying in Canada. I am doing Diploma in mechanical engineering technology through Northern Alberta Institute of Technology. The program is 2 years long. I have just started and I am in Semester one of year one. I would like to know the job opportunities available in India after getting my diploma. Thank you.
Answer: You should aim at settling in Canada. There is dearth of manpower there and they encourage immigration. Having stayed in that country, coming back to India and working as a diploma engineer will frustrate you. Diploma holders are treated lower than engineers and get a lower start and promotions are also at a separate pace. Even job content, levels etc are lower. The foreign returned stamp matters very less now a days. If you have strong family ties it will be better to take family members too with you at appropriate point in time.
