well sad do say I.t. jobs at usa and canada is not a hot jobs as a other medical field, i think you will have a difficulty in finding a job in I.T. , if you want to gain exposure to I.T. industries go to China, Malaysia, and Singapore.

^^sorry, maraming lay off ang IT job sa US. Iba na kasi ngayon. Before, isang project, mga more than 5 ang nagtratrabaho. Ngayon isang project kaya na ng isa gawa ng naglabasang bagong software like the SAP. Kung makakita ka ng opening IT job, marami kang kalaban na applicant.Yong mga pinoy na na-outsource noong millenium (2000), na lay off na 2 years ago.

kung sa medical field ka, you have more chances.

Here's a plain and simple answer to your versus idea. TO BEGIN WITH your a new a comer it will take you several years to establish, your lucky if do it in two years. Prepare yourself for things your not used to do. don't be picky when it comes to jobs, grab anything that comes and have your choice later.Hardship is not forever its temporary, once you get your feet wet then things started to get easy.Don't let your emotion dictate your everyday life, its tough and sometimes even tougher but always rermember its not forever.and don't buy YET.. material things you can hardly afford. About your IT jobs if can switch to automotive, watert treatment, HVAC or Bldg.stationary engineer you have a better chance of good and stable employment. good luck.

nk101,

You're not thinking it's legal to work in the US with that B1/B2 visa, are you?
It's not!
A B1/B2 visa is for touring purposes- for pleasure or for business. It's not intended for gaining employment and you would be in violation of US immigration laws if you ever attempt work under that status.

Filipinos who have abused their tourist visas in the past are the main reasons why it's so hard for others nowadays to even be approved for new visas at the US Embassy. Please, don't be a part of the problem that would only hurt your fellow Filipinos!

[rangerman79_91]

If you really have a US "work visa", you must already have an employment sponsor and a job lined up for you.
What is the problem then?

since you are a fresh grad, i would first suggest is to get experience muna. employers abroad hire you based on your experience. once you gained that experience, then try looking at the job market of both places. dont focus on 1 place lang so as not to limit your chances.

to each of his own, some say it's canada and some say it's us.

an advise first before jumping into anything BIG... really think about what and where you want to be in the near future... maybe you're contemplating to take up nursing but it turns out ur interest lies somplace... i, too, dont like IT but i stuck with it during my college years.. basta, before doign anything drastic, check yourself out first :)
