Back for 5mins from my hiatus..

Unexpectedly received my 10 year gre3n card today. Took 1/3 the time I thought it'd take.
Too little chance to 'celebrate' it as I am busy cooking something.

This Cali, we MUST comot!


And for the Fall 2021 batch of incoming students, may your journey be fruitful.
I recently completed 4years in the US and I have totally forgotten I ever schooled here. Life's too fast!

You'll be fine, just stay strong and always keep your morale high. Las las... All will be well.

With your OPT you can work anywhere that doesn't require security clearance. However, it's a smart idea to look for companies that understand the immigration processes for H1B and employment-based greencards. The national interest waiver is another process you can research. Finally, the easiest path is to genuinely marry a U.S. citizen.

@ Firefox01 , uchman , Sherlock5577 , xxxXXXxxx , gracefoundmme , Brightfab , alfonso36 , Drella...
and everyone else, thank you all for your good wishes!


@Drella, it was an Msc in Industrial Engineering. It was the Best Decision I made in 2016 - planned, implemented, and left in July 2017.
You too can do it if you are thinking about it.

With projections to be scheduled for an immigration interview earliest December 2021, as I saw the card with a 2031 expiry date, water full my eyes but as a strong man, I refuse to cry . I just said "Oluwa bu Eze!" cos I cannot explain how I was approved in 6 months instead of 18 to 24.5 months as I projected.

Glad I am not where I was a year ago, making progress and you can too (no use the money build fish pond , come yankee come discover your full potential).

@Mackynaija and all other elders in the house, I extend my special greetings for this invaluable thread. I have two questions please:

1)From my little research, it seems to me that a PhD in Economics is considered a STEM course in the US. If I follow this pathway, what are my chances of getting a post study permanent residence permit?

2) I want to go through the PhD pathway because it seems that it has more and better funding opportunities. Do I stand a chance to get admitted with the following profile:

GRE score: 308
BSc GPA based on WES evaluation: 3.7/4
IELTS overall band: 7.5

Thanks all.

Toppytek:


Lol, TBH I don’t just understand, even South Africa that’s closer to us looks different in pictures... well maybe it’s because am too used to the naija atmosphere.

MackyNaija:
As I said before, my resume was patterned to fit into roles as a manufacturing, process and industrial engineer... No love for Quality.

I still applied for roles in all.
At the interview, I was discharging answers in the line of control plan, Guage RnR, Cpk, Ppk, SQL etc etc..
The manager just deh look me.. See this one...

That's not what you'll be doing here - he said.
I was confused then but now I understand.



Tuck in every morning, go to the office, press my keyboard, caress n romance the customers, ensure compliance documentation are in order and processes are compliant, do customer facility walk-through, do supplier facility audits etc etc..

After all this, my shirt remains tucked in... No Sweat..

For the same salary as our process n manufacturing engineers? I cannot cough...



Make Una follow me thank Oluwa for delivering me from manual labor engineer and turning me to a keyboard pressing engineer.


My plans have changed - I Aspire to remain part of the decision making team. You should too.

All my former managers, forgive me for the hate, sorry dislike I had for you all.

salford1:

I get you now...
Office based positions. That makes me a laptop pressing Engineer too, but money no dey like field roles Sha. Coffee and muffin in the morning, then better lunch at noon, then come back and fight sleep till close of work . Best thing, home every night.

The HR is right Sha. Lost two colleagues so far to silicon valley this year. The moment they got their Canadian citizenship, they just japa to San Francisco to take up new roles at Intel and Eaton respectively.

Babyvet:


Okay but what does that have to do with me?
