求教，北美TOP16MBA毕业后没有绿卡好找工作吗？

听闻没有绿卡不会很好就业。TOP16毕业的MBA能去美国Consulting的概率多少啊？

求大侠赐教！

consulting的话不用担心有没有绿卡吧。。。
如果各方面都很outstanding，就业不是问题

想到万一要贷款，这一出校门就得担心生计啊。

听说consulting大部分都是回国的，不过是global pay

Good thing is work authorization is not an issue for consulting firm. But on the other hand, recruiting for consulting in US is gonna be extremely challenging.
1, Consulting jobs requires high level of communication skills, and familiarity of the American culture, which can hardly be acquired without sufficient time working/living in US.
2, Consulting is arguably the most sought-after job for MBA students, and this stands for both international students and US students.
That being said, 1) it's doable and there're plenty of precedents, 2) if you're generally more interested in pursuing management consulting career rather than prioritize location over function, there's still a good chance of making your way into the consulting world. Besides, I personally think it's definitely as good, if not better, a choice to do consulting in China as in US: large potential, more exposure to c-level executives...

Thanks so much! So the chance to join a US consulting firm without any previous experience neither a familiarity of US culture would  be slim even from top b school, right?

Yes, in consulting world, top school doesn't really make a huge difference, since consulting firms don't have quota for schools(unlike IB, finance schools do give you an edge). Even if your school has a strong alumni network in certain company, it doesn't help too much. However, companies do have a few "target school", which means if you're not from their target schools, the odds would be even less favorable for you.
Outside of consulting, the access to US jobs are determined by each company's own policy, rather than the ranking of your school. But many corporate won't go to every b-school to do recruiting, so getting into a top 7 school doesn't necessarily guarantee you a job in US, but will definitely give you more chances.
In general, if 30% of students from your school can land a job in consulting, you can hardly blame it on the school. But let's face the reality, it's still a huge challenge, and some jobs are more challenging for international students than others.
This is just my personal perspective on the overall odds, but it doesn't necessarily translate into discouragement for you. Getting a MBA is surely a good way into top consulting firm, so just focus on your b-school application(if you plan to) and worry about recruiting afterwards.

也不一定好找，现在HBS都不一定找的到
当然，付出大量的努力和汗水，又不在意小公司可能只有四五万的报酬，TOP100 MBA找到工作的也不少。
