Students after graduating in Germany

[njerigitau]

You’ve captured the headaches and anxieties that most international students go through, thanks!

Ok but the part where you showed the health insurance was an actual master stroke of cinematic genius 😂

Years ago I had a friend from Bangladesh who was a computer science major but in the meantime he was managing a pizza delivery store. I had my BA in History and had taken one or two graduate courses but with an ill wife and a teen daughter trombone player (those things cost over $700 each and had to buy 2 of them over the years!) in the band. He was always planning to go back to Bangladesh but he also had a wife and daughter which kept him working at the restaurant. By the way he was the general manager and I was the asst manager. We made a good team for four years till he finally finished his degree and moved home. We talked a lot and her stories always remind me of yours.

That job stress is real in every country. I worked on a community college campus with the largest CC International students in the state. I learned a lot about the VISA process and working both on and off campus. The safest was a student that was on a ViSA from her family and could not work nor volunteer directly. She could volunteer if her clubs were volunteering. I created a program for clubs to volunteer for activities and events on campus so she could gain experience.

As an international student, I can say that I came only for the food

With your online portfolio, you can do anything in media world. Especially in international companies. Edit since its so hard to get for many of you: Companies love doers, creative people who manage and complete assignments, who have completed track of projects especially if they created them on their own, or know how to manage international communities. It gives them an edge over other applicants because they are seen as active applicant. Despite what you think, its not easy to become famous or successful online. Yet she did it, all on her own. And that makes Uyen talented and unique. Companies of any kind even in the area people study see that (also because they think in how can it benefit us).

You should go wherever you think that there are the most opportunities for you and your fiancé, and also where you will be able to visit your loved ones.

Guess that applies to most international students. I know that feeling of having family/parents/siblings abroad far away but let me remind you that you are all welcome to take germany as your second home and I'm happy for your achievements, god bless! 🫶💪

I'm Mexican and moved to the UK for a masters. I'm staying here, so I'm feeling all this very, very intensely

[mononoke_hime_ham]

This is too real, and I’m not even an international student!!! But when I graduated, all those “student discounts” went bye bye

[takeyouwithme]

saddest part is when your family Does NOT want you back, rather nagg you to get a job ASAP as if it were up to us.

[myrtillegrandesoreilles]

All jokes aside, this is a big change and I can imagine how real these struggles are.

Please post a video about wedding culture in both your respective countries? Also wedding attire customs would be great! Congrats on graduation, Uyen! ❤️Much love from California.

As a former international student, the anxieties are too real. once you've worked your first job it goes down aggressively, you stop feeling like an idiot 24/7 whether its your fault or not😂, only difference is my family basically said don't come back

[carmenmunnelly]

Your music selection amazes me at its absolute appropriateness! Your videos are such jewels of visuals paired with audio clips. BRAVA! 🏆🏆🏆

the job application one is so true and really sad. My Husband wrote so many application and only had to choice to work at a shitty company while looking for something better. Me a german need to write a maximum of like 10 applications and with at least 5 job offers to choose from. (And he is way smarter and diligent than me)

[katbrigman]

All of that added stress makes me feel really sorry for what international students have to deal with. Just trying to finish your senior year is hard enough!

In the end you'll go to wherever the best opportunities are. Wherever that is, I'm certain you will have thought it out throughly and will be together.🍀

Don't forget "oh, I actually have to speak german now?"

[Nightingale_time]

This is what it was like for me after graduating in England. I unfortunately couldn't get a job there, so I'm not there anymore.
