I have a bachelors degree in computer science from the university of Jordan I moved to USA where can i work ?
There are very few jobs for computer people in the US. All of them have either been shipped to India or are reserved for Indians coming here on H-1B visas.





I've never heard of anybody actually getting a job on Monster, but you can try. There are a lot of fake jobs listed there. Companies are required to advertise jobs before they give them to H-1B's, but they aren't required to actually hire anybody else.





Also, when you see a job that says "must have 3-5 years experience", it means that 6 years is too much and you aren't qualified. Likewise, when they advertise, "Must speak fluent Hindi" and "must be recent grad of IIT" you know not to bother applying.





There are about 500,000 unemployed but highly skilled computer software engineers in the US right now and they are all looking for work. Most of them have a good bit of experience as well. You will be competing with them.
Reply:sorry, you'll have to go to India. That seems to be where all our computer jobs are going.





Not really, just being bitter....but its gonna be tougher than it would have been 5 years ago.





try websites like monster.com....if they don't have anything listed, they can at least give you some ideas
Reply:I am not sure exactly what you can get with your degree, but go to www.monster.com to post a resume and I am sure you can check out what is out there for you. Businesses can see your resume and will contact you. Good luck!
