Going through an MBA program will give you the right foundation to enter careers in finance, marketing, and other general business operations. It really does help round out your general business skill set.

However, you have to understand how an MBA can differentiate you from other candidates. If you have a technical background, going through an MBA will give you the opportunity to apply for business related positions. You can then position your technical background as a strength to differentiate yourself.

If you're hoping that your MBA alone will be enough to differentiate yourself, you're going to find that there are a lot of other people with MBAs in the job market. If you have an MBA from a top 20 business school, it will give you a competitive edge. You can also leverage the alumni network from these top business schools to discover new job opportunities.

Given that you're in the middle of the MBA program, I encourage you to finish the program. It's still a great way of building the skill sets that will help you down the road. Just keep in mind that an MBA alone is not going to get you your dream job. You have to think of yourself as a complete package and use all of your education, work experience, skill set, personality, etc. to differentiate yourself from other candidates and get your dream job.

If one really wants to work in the US, go to any US MBA program and you automatically have a 1 year work visa.
In any case it is true that is much easier to go to the UK. Right now London is much more open to foreigners, and that's why they keep growing as an economic capital of Europe even without adopting the Euro.

If one really wants to work in the US, go to any US MBA program and you automatically have a 1 year work visa.
In any case it is true that is much easier to go to the UK. Right now London is much more open to foreigners, and that's why they keep growing as an economic capital of Europe even without adopting the Euro.
Getting a job in the US is certainly harder than if you tried from a US school. For a couple of reasons
a) Location - a lot of companies simply prefer local recruitment. That eliminates large number of US companies. It is also a lot harder for international students to go to US for interviews - the logistics itself eliminates many possibilities.
the biggest problem really is US immigration laws. As things stand, it's simply a major pain in the rear end to visit the US for a job search or to get US work permits. This keeps companies away from selecting students, it also dissuades many deserving students from even attempting.
The H1-B sillyness makes it both unpredictable and ridiculously difficult to take up a job in US. This year's visas are being allotted in lottery which means almost 1 in every 2 applicants won't get the visa and those who were offered jobs can no longer really take them. And then the spouse cannot work.
2. The permanent residency laws that force employees to be chained to an employer for even up to 6-7 years. It's sort of strange that the law expects people, many who may have houses, children, and have worked for years, paid taxes, to leave the country in 15 (or 10 or whatever it is) days if they lose a job. The law treats employees like the 'daily wage' replacement workers instead of a global work force.
3. Policy that sort of clubs Ph.D's, master degree holders, engineers, doctors, and those who jump across the border all in the same lump. .
