I won't say that my "connections" didn't favor me in securing the job but I reckon my Master's Degree from an American institution certainly played its part.
In my own personal case, like I aforementioned, I never had any great intentions of living in the States for a stretched timeframe. Hence, I did have the luxury of "affording" to attend an American institution, not worrying about the return. Really, a mere salary of 25k plus incentives doesn't do a justice to all the hardwork and money I've spent for my Bachelor's and Master's degrees from the States but I look at my own case as more of a personal gain than a return to investment ( short-term ).
I learned a number of lifelong lessons while in the States and I'm damn sure I won't repent it.
Speaking of connections, I plan to spend next 3-4 years with the bank and then, I'm pushing myself for a job at an American INGO with little help of a connection.
