What is your long-term plan after completing your master's degree in UK/Ireland?
After completing your master's degree, you have several options to gain international work experience and advance your career.
- UK: The Graduate Route lets you work for up to 18 months after graduation without employer sponsorship. For permanent residency, you must later secure a Skilled Worker visa with a qualifying job offer.
- Germany: You can stay for 18 months to seek employment. Any job is allowed during this period, and once you find a relevant position, you may be eligible for an EU Blue Card, which can lead to permanent residency.
- Italy: A 12-month post-study job search permit allows you to find work or start a business related to your degree.
- Ireland: Master's graduates can stay and work for up to 2 years under the Third Level Graduate Programme. Securing a Critical Skills Employment Permit can put you on the path to permanent residency.
You can use your international experience to build a career abroad or return to India with better prospects and higher earning potential.
