USA, Canada / Getting job in U.S. with Polish degree [14]
So you are an American with an American BA and a Polish business degree?
This reminds me of when we hired an American with an American BSEE and a British degree in the history of science. We wondered why in the world he had gone to the UK to study the history of science instead of getting an engineering job right away. We hired him on the strength of his bachelor's degree and considered his British degree to be a type of personal development experience.
Similarly, a US employer will wonder why you went to Poland to study business when American business schools are world-class. So you will have to provide a narrative that hangs together, that will make going to Poland to study business seem an obvious choice.What unique strengths and skills did you gain?
