Is it better to study first and then find a job abroad rather than relying on third-party agencies for jobs?
Yes, studying abroad first is generally a better and safer path than relying on third-party agencies for jobs.
- Higher employability: International study experience is highly valued by employers and helps you develop global skills, adaptability, and confidence. - Personal and academic growth: Living and studying abroad builds independence and broadens your perspective, while also giving you access to diverse academic opportunities. - Reduced risk: Many third-party job agencies are unregistered and may charge high fees or run scams, putting you at financial and legal risk.
By earning a degree abroad, you gain recognized qualifications, build a professional network, and improve your long-term job prospects in a reliable way.
