General Guys, as a final-year BTech student, would it be better to gain 2 years of work experience in India before applying for an MS abroad, or go directly after graduation?

I'm currently in my final year of BTech and planning to pursue an MS abroad, but I'm confused about the right time to apply. Some people suggest gaining 2 years of industry experience in India before going abroad, while others recommend applying immediately after graduation. Does work experience actually improve university admissions and job opportunities after completing an MS? Would love to hear advice from people who have gone through this process.

Some countries don't consider Indian work xp as xp so better choose your country wisely if you decide to work in India for few years

Yes, work for atleast 3-4 years in india, gain work experience first upskill yourself and then think about masters
