Hi Guys, I'm planning to apply at Australian B-schools in July intake this year, though I'm unaware of job scenario and market over there. I'm submitting my profile and prospects bschools to which I'll be applying. Although most importantly what I know to is about the "MBA scene" over there as I'm told that MBA is not considered lucrative and for international students, it's hard to get a job. Also

Hi there,
So it sounds like a lot of your questions could possibly be directed to staff, students & alum at some of the Australian b-schools you are considering... that will be the best way to get the most accurate info of what the environment is like over there!
Some general thoughts...
-be sure to think through exactly a) why you want the MBA, and b) why you are interested in Australia.... it seems you have a lot of q's about the Australian post-MBA environment; I'd suggest starting with that research before even focusing on specific schools etc
-each school will have employment stats, even often on their websites, so you can see exactly what grads are doing, what companies recruit there, where people go, etc. There is a certain amount of portability with an MBA degree but it is also always easy to make connections and network in the country in which you study of course
-reach out to schools-- talk with students and alum and ask about your concerns; you can ask admissions to put you in touch with current students/alum.
Good luck to you!
