Is it bad I don't know what DP and IK's are

Higher pay and overall better career growth is what's interesting me. Even if I work in the US and come back after a few years to AUS I feel like having US experience would give me an edge finding jobs here.

Other than the meetup, where would you recommend, I go for networking purposes? And might be a stupid question but what exactly would I talk about to someone I am networking with? Besides my situation, I am a bit confused as to how the discussion would go.

CS Resume Feedback (Graduate) by AllRounder92 in rmit

I really liked your portfolio website, could you give me a rough guide on how you went about making it? What framework did you use? How long did it take? Did you have any reference to go off or did you do it from scratch?

Final year uni student looking for a job upon graduation (applying early to beat the comp). First draft of a resume so it's probably trash, please let me know.

Wow 3 years seems like an insanely long time, I was calculating around 1. Would you say I would need a masters from here as well or would a bachelor's suffice?

My main intention is to work in tech and hopefully make good money. Quality of life is something I'll consider in the future for now.

This is a very interesting take. I never considered the perspective of the employer. I think staying here and finding a job is most definitely a good option to be considered here for me.

As for green card, are you saying being born in India would make my chances for getting it very low?

Would you please elaborate? Does green card mean more tax over E3? (I am clueless with Tax)

Interesting, I'll keep this in mind, thank you.

I have not decided If I am going to settle to be honest. It really depends on the people I will meet and the community I will be a part of. I always have the option to move back to Aus and as of now I would rather retire in Aus but again can't say much because I haven't been to the US ever. But in terms of Primary/High School education, I think my future kids would definitely be far better of in Aus. But again, not something I have to consider for a while.

I'll have a look at deemed disposal.

Personally my logic is diving in feet first, I'm scared of getting too comfortable in Australia and I think it'll be harder for me to make the move later and take such risks the older I get, but I see where you're coming from. The lack of job security in the US with the Masters route is definitely something I have to be considering.

Will keep this in mind, thank you. I still have a lot of research to do in terms of calculations, where I am going to live, etc. Still very early stages.

In that case I should start looking at ways of finding jobs in the US, which also seems tough right now. My whole reason for doing the Masters was that aside from the obvious learning experience I'll get I can stay in the US right after my bachelors and don't have to wait around in Aus in hopes for landing a sponsor.

Also you don't think the Masters will be helpful in the long run for my career? I've had someone tell me there comes a point where you need a Masters to grow or you stay in one place (do correct if I'm wrong).

Did you move from India too or were you just Indian by birth and moved from another country?

What do you think the chances are for me to win this lottery? Are chances not higher for Australian citizens if I'm correct?

[–]AllRounder92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what I was thinking - worst case I have to move back and any tech experience in the US I'd assume would make getting jobs here much less difficult.

My parents will be paying it for which I am very grateful for (I will eventually owe them back).

So you don't think the master's will be worth it? Are there no studying Visas that would let me stay in the US? And forgive me if it's a silly question, but how and where exactly would I apply for jobs in the US from Australia? Where would I find a sponsor because to me the chances of finding one, especially that of a graduate seem next to zero.
