11 ай бұрынCovid, Recessions, and Layoffs: Reflecting on my past 4 years in the US, with all the crazy macro-events going on one after another - Covid-19 Pandemic, Remote School and Work, Tech Recession and Layoffs, what's next?
Hi everyone my name is Chen, I’m a Singapore who has been living in the US for the past 4 years. In the first 2 years I was pursuing my MBA in Upstate New York (Cornell Johnson) and for the past 1.5 years I have been working in Seattle as a financial analyst in Tech. It's definitely a crazy 4 years experiencing Covid-19 Pandemic, School and work going remote, tech recession and layoffs.
By the way my dog looks really messy because we just came back from a field trip and she rolled in the mud for whole day, grooming day tomorrow!
I will be posting more life in the US videos so make sure to like, comment, and subscribe!

My entire life, lol. I relocated for my MBA in 2020 and I have since experienced massive changes.

Thank you for sharing this. Indeed, everything happens for a reason and if we have that perspective, it changes our approach to all situations.

Hi there loved your journey, was thinking of doing an mba in cornell too but the aim of breaking into banking, just wondering was it very competitive to break into IB US? also in terms of visa, since your sponsored, generally how many years do they sponsor you and will they renew them after it expires or they will ask you to leave? And in terms of getting green card, is it easier to get a green card with an MBA + H1 visa sponsored by firm already given that you currently working in us?

yes IB is very competitive especially for international students. Assuming u r one, I would talk to alums in prospective schools and learn about success rates of international students getting into IB. I believe H1B visas are typically for 3 years then subject to renewal, I’m not sure how renewal works have not reached that stage, but my guess is the company will help. Greencard is really dependent on the company, some might need u to work for a few years b4 applying others might help very early.

I believe 90% of ppl took a loan for mba, I don’t think full scholarship is very common. Sch website may have stats
