Are there good job opportunities in software industry abroad after my course in Ireland/Canada for a Master's?
Yes, there are strong job opportunities in the software industry abroad after your master's.
- USA: The OPT (Optional Practical Training) program allows up to 36 months of work authorization for STEM graduates, but long-term roles often require employer sponsorship for an H-1B visa, which is competitive and subject to annual caps.
- Canada: The Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) typically allows up to 3 years of open work, which can help you qualify for permanent residency.
- Ireland: A 2-year stay-back option lets non-EU graduates work after their master's, with a thriving tech sector and many multinationals.
Your 2 years of experience and a master's will make you a strong candidate.
