A foreign student in the USA said

Jeremie Musa on Quora said on Oct. 8, 2019:

I’m the living testimony of the so-called American ungratefulness: 

“Congratulations on your degree, YOU MAY LEAVE NOW.” 

After living, studying and investing a great deal of my life in the USA for the last 8.5 years, I had no job opportunity whatsoever.

 I found myself jobless while having spent over $60k just to get a bachelor's degree. 

I went to one of the top 50 most ranked universities in the USA (University of Minnesote), I participated in most of the well-organized career fairs, build up a resume yet without professional experience, put myself out there, applied to countless jobs, attended numerous interviews. ALAS, all I could get was an email stating: “Thank You for your interest in (company name), however, we have not retained your application…” 

Without a job offer, I could not stay after graduation or even stay longer to keep my search up.

I almost told myself that I was useless and worthless. 

Guess what, Canada has embraced all I had to offer to this day and continues to show appreciation towards my competencies. 

It wasn’t until early 2017 when I decided to move out of the USA and started the Permanent Residency application to move to Canada that I actually realized that Canada is all that young educated professionals could ever ask for in terms of welcoming immigration.

It offers job opportunities, unbeatable health care and great life settlement in general.

So let me say this: Moving to Canada is one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life.

I'm so grateful and thankful to this marvellous country. I wish I had not spent my education money as I did, and wasted my time in the USA.
