WSJ: How does that 25% compare with a decade ago? Mr. Robertson: If we go back 10 or 15 years ago when students came here [from other countries], especially from India and China, they would want to stay in the United States. Now, as those economies have become a lot more robust and higher growth, students are more likely to be going back. What we also find is that some of our American and European students, instead of taking jobs on Wall Street, some of them are going to Shanghai, or Hong Kong, or Singapore. I would say 10 or 15 years ago, 10% of our MBAs were accepting international positions. Probably most of those were people going back. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB100...80774344.html?mod=WSJ_hpp_MIDDLE_Video_second
Can't blame them. Not a student but if I get a job offer from Singapore(and maybe even china) I'd drop NYC in a heartbeat.
this is old news. a book has already been written on the subject:Flight Capital: The Alarming Exodus of America's Best and Brightest by David A. Heenan (Hardcover - September 1, 2005) "Not a student but if I get a job offer from Singapore(and maybe even china) I'd drop NYC in a heartbeat." pupu -what are you doing to receive an offer?
Not much I admit, except being extra nice so any SG recruiter contacting me. Heartbeat was a bit of a strong word. More likely I'll wait a year to make sure the US really dying then and look harder into this. Any tips on how to pursue? I'm a highly experienced IT specialist, mostly large IB XP.
