<p>is the name of the university very important when international undergraduate students want to find a job in the us, and get the visa sponsorship, after their graduation? Is it true that an international student can have better opportunity to be hired if he or she graduate from a prestigious university? What is most important for international business major students to find a job?
1.overall gpa
2.reputation of the university
3.practical experience</p>
<p>Probably the name of your university opens more doors, especially for industries like management consulting and investment banking, but in the H1-B temporary work visa lottery, it is totally random, which means a University of Alabama graduate hired by a 20-person company can edge out a Harvard graduate hired by Goldman Sachs or Boston Consulting Group.</p>
<p>For business students, the name/reputation matters more than engineering/science graduates. Thus, I think the reputation is the most important, and it is a tie between your overall GPA and practical experience (internship, etc…).</p>
