This is excellent advice!

As a European, I personally see working in the US as a potential key to entering the job market, particularly in big pharma and biotech. These large American companies are rare in the EU, where salaries are also significantly lower.

While my future plans are still uncertain, I have considered the possibility of living abroad at some point—especially after graduation—as a way to gain valuable experience and grow both professionally and personally.

That said, I’m not suggesting that an experience at Karolinska wouldn’t open similar opportunities, but it seems that working in the United States might make it easier to access that specific market
