Mon · Answer

@AnuragSethi Your work experience is in which area or business?

Mon · Answer

@AnuragSethi in that case, look for Newyork State. Hence Suny-Buffalo. If you're majorly interested to work for the financial sector.

Mon · Answer

@AnuragSethi : as per my interest area, I'm focused on Tri-state area universities for Financial sector opportunities.

Anant Gupta · Answer

@AnuragSethi  UTD has way better MSBA as compared to UB data science.UB ds is very recent and the course is not that indepth, when you go for such streams better to go with a hard course, more knowledge more job chances

Anant Gupta · Answer

Suny buffalo grads mostly get into health care, though there are few with financial sectors as well.but I think with your work ex it’s a good choice, not the best but a good one. Don’t bank on suny UB career fares as they suck big time. Develop your own network because that’s what will get u a job.i think with international work ex you must already be having a good and set NW

Thanks

Anurag Sethi · Answer

I was inclined towards 1 year buffalo's program since I had 4 years of relevant experience.
So a shorter program would be more suited and cost effective

I was on a  consulting for barclays and a reputed insurance firms. Both places hired people as interns straight out of grad schools for developer, data infrastructure , etl etc roles. (And also sponsered HIB)
But this was during pre trump days.
Plus NYC : high taxes, very very high cost of living, windy fluctuating weather. On plus side you don't need to have your personal vehicle.
