Are there any preferred countries for pharmaceutical industry jobs and PR opportunities besides UK and New Zealand?

Yes, besides the UK and New Zealand, Canada and Australia are highly preferred for pharmaceutical industry jobs and offer strong PR (Permanent Residency) opportunities for Indian students.
Both countries have robust pharmaceutical sectors, high demand for skilled professionals, and relatively straightforward PR pathways after work experience.
Germany is also notable for pharma jobs, but PR rules are more complex. The US offers top pharma careers but has a more competitive and lengthy visa process.
