Should I pursue higher education without industrial experience?
I am in USA. I do not have work authorization. I graduated in software development in 2016. But, I don't have industrial experience since getting job is impossible due my immigration status. I will hopefully get work authorization in about 5 years. I was thinking of doing masters in Business, computer science or something related to business , finance and technology. The reason I took this decision is to at least prepare myself with higher academic aqualifications since i can not apply for jobs, and therefore after five years I would hopefully in a better position to apply for better job. So, my questions are : Should I pursue in academic qualifications without much work experience? Will this open more job opportunities after 5 years evm though I have limited work experience. If i am wrong in my decision to pursue higer education, what should I do instead to be in better position to get a job in 5 years?

Should I pursue a career in finance or graphic design?
I like finance and graphic design equally. Finance can be a little be challenging and need a lot of math classes in order to get that degree. For graphic design, i thought it might be easier since it’s creative performance and stuff. Finance positions does pay a lot more than graphic designer. But I’m not sure if I will like finance in the future, because it can also be a very boring job of just processing numbers and stuff. Additionally, do you know what college that is suitable for graphic design and what college for finance major in areas in or near New York City (Includes Long Island)? Maybe even a college within those areas that have both majors.

What is your opinion on this : Should i start my business now only without doing mba and saving 30 lakh education loan and put it here or should i do mba and do job for 5 year repay education loan and again take loan and start a business ?
Currently i have job of 5 LPA at IT . I am not interested in IT field but want to switch to finance or money . I already have education loan of 10 Lakh for Btech . So i am planning to get into mba college in india via CAT which will require at least 30 lakh which i can take as a education loan so it will be of 2 years course. My currently goal is to go to mba college take job of at least 20lpa and do job for at least 4-5 years and do my own business by taking loan from bank again of nearly 30 lakh .

Im gonna persue my bachelors on AI engineering next year. Do you think this is a good field? or is something overly saturated?
I also thought about studying Mechanical Engineering or Chemical Engineering. But AI is just something incredible. I feel like studying that could be similar to studying "medicine" in the past. Is a very general field and you can specialize in anything that you want after that. In my case i love finance, the industry, philosophy, and humanitarian concerns. So pursuing a graduate degree in one of those fields after can create a solid path. What do you guys think about this? Given my interests? Is this a good way to launch my career?

How did you decide on a career?
Like what made you decide on that one. Were you undecided or set on what you wanted? I need help deciding for one but I need kind of a more understanding of what they do to ensure I want to do it.

How do I find a job post-grad in the political science sector ?
I just recently graduated from UCSB with a political science degree and I am very interested in international relations and community development, but I have no idea where to start, and it seems like the job market is scary. I would like to work for the government, but am considering going to law school as well. I have acquired relatively decent experience throughout undergrad: - I graduated with a 3.7 gpa from UCSB - I worked on a community development research project as a research assistant - I interned for a non profit organization in a position focused around community development and outreach - held a position in my sorority for a year Any tips/tricks/advice on how or where to look for a job?
