Thanks KillEmAll, HappyFace and Poon-Hill, I have been applying to companies through job websites. HF I thought they say resume should be fit in a page. KillEm how/where to find Indian Consultancy? Advantages/Disadvantages? My student loan is co-signed so there is no running away from it. I am not too much worried about credit score. Poon-Hill Thanks for company list. That's what I found are the major employers. Towards the end of my MS I was applying for job and PhD at the same time. Got PhD first, however, things did not work out well, I guess.
