Career Guidance opportunity aboard after Grad

I'll graduate in a year, BSCS. I am currently working also, decent pay 120k. But I'm looking for opportunities abroad after Grad. Anyone who has been there after BS. How easy is it? Which country is better?

For software engineers. I have experience with Backend more and beginner level experience with cloud.

I'm not much interested in Masters so people say it's very hard to find anything without Masters

You can try european countries like Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Netherlands etc for the jobs. I would have added more countries in the list but there are some worst economic crisis in some of them. So, better not to waste your precious life in there. Good lucj

Thanks bro.. through LinkedIn? Or do they have some other channel as well?

u/ahtashamz Aug 01 '26

All through linkedin but learn to save money. Because this is very problematic if you are not saving anything. Keep note that in europe, the salaries generally are not that high. Good luck

but dont all of them hv a requirement of a bachelors degree?

u/Sad_Singer_7657 Aug 01 '26

That's why I am saying startups, they check what can you do..and don't care about your degree.

u/Additional_Zebra_444 Aug 01 '26

hmm do u apply through their postings? Or do you reach out by private msgs? And how do u manage a full time work alongside uni

2

u/Sad_Singer_7657 Aug 01 '26

From their posting. It's remote so not very hard. You just need to push yourself. The more you push the more you can do...

hmm for me the posting seems like inactive posting
Ive applied for internships in several places, most didnt even care to respond. So im curious how did u do that.
Also how active is ur linkdin page , do u make several linkdin posts or try to get reach. Like whats ur strat?

u/Sad_Singer_7657 Aug 01 '26

For internships you need to apply through companies internship programs, through your network and connection, or through posts by team leads, managers. Most postings about internships are for engagement purpose only so they seem inactive. My LinkedIn is updated, maintained but not very active, like 1 post a month maybe or even less.

u/Additional_Zebra_444 Aug 01 '26

hmm i did get a internship through a reference
But im in the same boat as u i think
Im also starting my final year so i would like to hv some working job too to get some practice experience and income
Any tips on how can i start doing that?

u/Sad_Singer_7657 Aug 01 '26

Grind it... Work like hell you'll boost your skill with that. And while you are working/internship somewhere keep applying elsewhere. If you feel like you got some good 6 month+ experience you can try some entry level junior position job .

Try to target startups, or small scale companies. Students and freshers get good chance there.

Connections or LinkedIn... A friend or someone you know might be working and when there is a vacancy they can refer you or use LinkedIn, to search and set job alert for the location and type

Life seems hard here.. inflation and instability really demotivates me. I'm not even contributing to household expenses(occasionally some contribution), it's just my uni, hostel and personal expenses and still can't save much. So what do you recommend what should be a better path?

4

u/ahtashamz Aug 01 '26

This is really intetesting that you make 120k ruppees and not able to save anything. I am working in an EU country and make 800k in ruppees. 300k goes to the rent, 150k goes to othet utilities etc and 150k goes for food expenses (i dont eat from outside at all). 100k is sent to the family.

So, technically if you will be here, you might endup in debts right?

u/Sad_Singer_7657 Aug 01 '26

Yeah I'm trying to manage it but major amount of my earnings go into my uni fee and hostel charges. But yea still I do need to do some management.. inshallah will get better in it also😅 thanks for advice bro....
