How do mechanical engineers get a job abroad

The way to find a job outside is to apply for it either through the job portals or through by applying directly on the company websites. Companies that are open to hiring foreigners will get in touch with you and interview your skills. Once you are shortlisted, the company usually arranges for all the paper works that is required to transfer there.
Otherwise, if you are looking for different types of engineering jobs, then you can join any of the foreign colleges, study there and participate in the placements drive. The international center for applied sciences (ICAS), is a program from where various students have transferred online to get an engineering degree from a foreign college and also got placed there. There are quite some examples of that. There’s one blog on a girl that I read recently on their website on a girl who did her mechanical engineering through this program and transferred to a foreign college to complete here mechanical engineering.
The implementation of mechanical engineering is broadening day by day and I also read about another blog that talked about the use of mechanical engineering in the cell-repair.

It depends on various factors:
  • If you are from IIT or NIT, your chances of being placed abroad are very high. In short the University or college from where you have your B.tech matters to an extent.
  • Having contacts with people who work abroad. A really long shot and really depends on luck. The wait for replies is time-consuming and might also ruin confidence at times. One thing you can do is work here while trying abroad, needs constant planning and much effort to be put.
  • If you have experience of at least 2 yrs in the field you intend to pursue. Trust me, the salary would be low at the start but the struggle is worth it and eventually pays off well.
  • Do Master's in the country you wish to work in, a long shot but an effective one. Most tend to prefer this route.
  • Do Masters after gaining experience in the field you want to work. A further time-consuming process, but increases your chances of getting placed after studies.
