Hey anyone planning to move abroad and work after graduating McMaster? I am just wondering

I'm considering it. Somewhere in Europe would be nice.

I hope so. But I've started looking into it recently, and it's a lot more complicated than I thought, so we'll see how it goes!

I wanna move to Australia or Singapore but yea immigrating to another country, especially a developed one, takes so much time and work and it seems like the countries are toughening immigration policies

I don't think I will but to those who are, will your move be permanent or will it just be to have a small taste of working abroad?

I wonder how many people will say that they are staying on this jobless island called Hamilton.

They will never be tough on hard working people with good education and future.

policy work for the UAE. They could really use the help.

I am planning to move to another country and then come back and retire in Canada. I want to experience something new and plus I hate snow. With that being said I still believe Canada is the greatest country on the face on the earth. We should all be grateful we live in a country like this

I would love to stay in Hamilton! Absolutely no sarcasm... I love this city

I would love to immigrate to Canada someday. (I'm an Indian, btw)

Sometimes it amazes me that people living in countries like Canada would want to immigrate. You're living in one of the best countries of the world; why do you want to immigrate? Perhaps a few months in India will show you how lucky you are!

There are other great countries too, often they just get overshadowed...for example, many Scandinavian countries have excellent quality of living (they rate better than Canada), many of their citizens are happier and there is less poverty.

That said, sometimes people just want to go somewhere different. Sometimes there are job opportunities elsewhere that don't exist here.

This is a great country, but it has its faults. No country is perfect, so Canada might not be the best for everyone.

I'll probably be moving to either Europe or the US for grad school, have no idea beyond that...

Yes, and the quality of life isn't uniform throughout a particular country; for example, I've lived in both India and Canada, and there are parts of India where I would rather live than the parts of Canada I've lived in; I prefer the lifestyle (in rural India) to that of suburban Canada; there's peace and quiet. However, I'd never want to live in urban India. Within countries, and even within areas within countries, there's bound to be massive variation.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and so on.

I don't really want to go anywhere else for the foreseeable future... even after grad

Exactly the sorts of place I'm thinking of.
