No, there is no assurance of getting a job after studying in the UK or Australia.

Both countries offer post-study work visas - Graduate Route in the UK and Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) in Australia - which let you stay and work for 2 - 4 years after graduation. However, getting a job depends on your field (like nursing), work experience, and current job market demand.

These visas provide the opportunity to seek work but do not guarantee employment. For your background in nursing and planned master's intake, eligibility looks strong, but actual job prospects will vary.

If you need guidance on maximizing your chances, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.

No, job placement after graduation is not guaranteed for every student.

Your chances depend on factors like your field of study, skills, work experience, and the job market. Universities often offer career support, but competition can be strong and some roles require prior experience.

In Canada, the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) lets eligible graduates work for up to three years - this can help you gain experience and may lead to permanent residency. In the UK, the Graduate Route visa allows up to two years of post-study work for master's graduates, but longer-term employment may require employer sponsorship.

To improve your prospects, make use of internships, build relevant skills, and engage with university career services.
