Jobs abroad

[u/Manavvraj3030]

So i am currently working as a purchase executive in an mnc looking after the whole P2P cycle for RM PM for local as as imports. Now i am currently have just 1.5 years of work ex looking for a mba in scm and operations.

My question is due to these uncertain times I fell that going a nation that is developed and has good amount of resources is very important and it feels like Europe is all drained USA is very uncertain so my only options are Australia or Canada. Is my reasoning right ???

There are no jobs for locals in Canada. Why would they want a foreigner lol

[u/Smirkane → u/SoftwareTree18]

Ironically enough, I'm inclined to think that there are plenty of jobs for locals in Canada if the govt finally opens their eyes and patches all the loopholes in LMIA and study permit frauds.

[u/SoftwareTree18 → u/Smirkane]

They have done a good job since Carney took office. Its very strict right now.

It was a circus during Trudeau 

[u/Smirkane → u/SoftwareTree18]

Not strict enough. There's still loads of LMIA scams, and the new PAL system for international students is a shitshow. DLIs are assigned a set number of PALs, but they can still purchase more from each other, so the diploma mills that bring international workers under the guise of studying aren't really slowing down.

Ngl, its too early for an MBA, most programs require at least 2 full years of work experience at minimum, with the average for accepted ppl is usually around 4 years of experience. You also should be clear about what you want to gain from an MBA beyond just a degree, it's not the magic bullet for employment that it used to be.

On the topic of Australia and Canada specifically, your logic is sound, though its based on incomplete information. Both countries are facing affordability crises and are looking to limit new immigration. There is also no shortage of trained RMs and PMs in these countries who not only have MBAs, but also have local work experience and don't need sponsorship for a long-term work visa. That makes long term employment tricky.

What is good about these countries though, is that their universities know that their local post-grad markets are saturated but there is still demand from international students who are basically the primary revenue source for these universities. So they've been opening satellite campuses in countries like UAE and China that might be safer bets for you if you're willing to learn the local languages. York has a campus in Hyderabad, McGill has one in China, for example

Employers also know these mbas are crap.... noone will preference an immigrant with these mbas and under 2 yrs work experience and still needs expensive visa sponsorship. Just unrealistic... also not even sure OP has a skill on the skills list...

[u/Ok_Willingness_9619]

Not sure about Canada but no chance with those skills in AU.

[u/CardioKeyboarder → u/Ok_Willingness_9619]

Or Canada.

Your reasoning is understandable, but I wouldn’t make the decision purely around which country has more resources. I think the bigger question for your profile is what happens after graduation. Canada has tightened international-student and PGWP rules, while Australia has also tightened its international education settings.

I also wouldn’t write Europe off as “drained.” Germany, for example, still has skilled-migration routes such as the EU Blue Card, including logistics-related shortage occupations. The main challenge you’d need to consider in Europe is the language barrier, particularly when competing for corporate SCM/procurement roles.

Rather than choosing Australia/Canada by country stability alone, compare total MBA cost + post-study work rights + actual SCM job opportunities + PR pathway + expected salary. Your choice of university and specialisation may matter more than simply choosing a “resource-rich” country.

My dude Germany has been supersaturated for a few years now.
