Is it correct that everyone advises to go through study visa even if I am planning for a work visa?
Yes, many students and professionals choose the study route because obtaining a direct overseas work visa from India can be difficult without international experience or employer sponsorship. Studying abroad helps students gain local qualifications, internships, networking opportunities, and employer exposure, which can improve long-term job prospects. Another major advantage is that many countries offer a post-study work visa after graduation, allowing students to stay back after your education and search for jobs locally. However, studying abroad does not automatically guarantee a job. Your success at securing a job and eventually a work visa still depends on factors such as your skills, prior experience, networking, internships, specialization, and the job market in that country.
