hai everybody,
I am going to finsh my master's in germany soon. I am from India.
Is there any consultancies in germany, who can help me to get a work permit or can help to get a job in software companies like in usa?
Yes , ofcourse I know that from janaury the new rules will come..but even , I am not sure these people will give jobs for Indians or foreighners? coz some of my friends finsihed theirs degrees and attended lot of interviews in mnc's and in small companies too! but no one got a job here! most of them moved to usa and uk..But most of the times, german presdient gave statement that germany is willing to hire Indians in software, and in research as they have lack of people in these fields, but in reality the cituation is very bad, i hope!
so can any body suggest me , what to do to get a job here?

try monster.com, you will see jobs all over europe.
Also, try the highly skilled migrant option, UK has one, canada, australia....check if france has one....

They are supposed to consider local Germans first and hire other nationalities only if they cannot find any suitably trained local.

You could try finding job in the US, They have apparently increased the H1B visa cap.

Isn't India the best place for an IT pro nowadays? What are your options if you go back?

Good luck , anyway

H1b cap has been decreased not increased.

It used to be 65, 000 and now it has been raised to 85, 000.

Sorry darko, it is still at 65,000.

But it hasn't been lowered
