Has anyone faced challenges with recognition abroad?

Question

When it comes to getting recognition abroad, Indian students face the issue of familiarity. Students graduating from the best of the institutions in the country, that is, the IIMs, would find that getting their degrees recognized isn't as difficult; however if you are studying in a relatively not-so-well-known institute, it's usually a problem. Sometimes, the employer abroad becomes skeptical about the quality of education a student receives from those institutes, which are less-well-known and relatively unknown institutions that have little global presence.
Another challenge could come from a different educational system. An Indian program might have more of a theoretical background than what would be required in a country where students need to be practically skilled. Such an aspect could raise concern for international employers to take your qualifications into consideration.
Apart from that, networking is very important. Many international job markets hold such connections in equal esteem as they would hold degrees. If you don't have an incredible network, you will thus find it even more difficult to break into the international job market&hellip;
At times, graduates have had to experience firsthand the fact that they are undervalued even though they possess equivalent skills and knowledge. They normally have to prove their capabilities much more strictly than their peers from some of the better-known schools.
Thus, in case you go abroad to work, it makes sense to choose your university with care, take all the benefit of practice on internships, and reach international network during studying. These steps might increase chances of being noticed and appreciated in the world labor market.
