Having a skill definitely helps... there was this guy from India he was really good at playing a musical instrument. While studying abroad his side hustle was to tutor kids interested in playing that instrument. Usually only wealthy Indian families well settled would hire him. He always stayed back to have a chat with parents and offered to live performances at parties... he was able to leverage his skills to make connections... and went on to create multiple start up..

That sounds like the plot of a Bollywood movie
Also Pakistanis plz don't tell that we are Indians when u come outside..😄😄😄
I came ro UK in 2021. I worked in restaurants chain for 4 months and then in security for the rest of 7 months. I always preferred to build connection with Harry rather than Hamza.
I did my best to explore and enhance my learning. Most of my other friends especially from Punjab, seemed like they just cane to UK, just to work in security and stick with that for the rest of life. For time being, it’s ok to work and survive, but to stick with than even if having everything, shows whats your mentality is.
Even I used to work in security, very tough times, but always made sure I am continuously learning and engaging with Paul and Lucia as well. Those small engagements and exploration made me able to get my decent job in my respective field in just two weeks after submission of my dissertation. I wish everyone best. But yes, Indians especially South Indians are far far better and smarter than Pakistanis.
Exactly, most of the students stuck themselves in such jobs they don't really explore. I would like to add another point that mostly students forget their main purpose of going there which is study I believe they should become expert in their particular field rather than doing what other millions of people are doing.I know sometimes you have to do such jobs as well but students should not do that permanently.

In May, my first study permit application was refused. I was so disappointed and disheartened that I had no idea how to absorb that rejection. I was getting flashbacks in my dreams as depression kicked in. One day I was scrolling through my feed in the early morning (3-4am) when Junaid Bhai's video regarding comparison between UAE (Yahan se jaanay ka ek din mukarrar hai) and Western Countries popped up. That video changed my mindset and I started preparing my application again a that very point in time and reapplied on the same day in a single sitting after spending hours in defending and responding to the objections of the Visa Officer. Five months passed by and I almost forgot about my application. On one morning I received request for medical leading to approval of my Study permit. I am flying to Canada in December now and here comes another super tip video. Sometimes, it takes one video that can change one's mindset. Thank you 🙏❤
Hold on brother im also coming to canada as well❤❤
7:40 I completely agree. I got a placement year at University of Liverpool after my second year mechanical engineering. I was appointed as a research assistant where I conducted a study on contact lens materials which helped us model the behavior of soft contact lenses on the human eye. This placement year was not paid but the experience I got from working there was invaluable. I got to publish 2 peer-reviewed research papers (I authored one and was a co-author for the second) before I had even started my final year. After that, I applied for a job at one of UK's leading contact lens manufacturers, got selected because of my research work and experience in the industry and started my job as a contact lens design engineer 4 months before my graduation. I can't emphasize enough on the importance of work experience in the industry. My CEO only asked about the progress of my degree for around 5 minutes out of the 2 hour interview where he questioned my understanding of the industry. Almost 2 years later, I am taking a lead role in the R&D department and I hope to bring a few of our technologies and/or production to Pakistan in the future. I always tell my fellow desi friends to focus on getting industrial experience especially if they're from STEM fields, you can throw away your degree but no one can take away the wealth of practical experience you get when you actually get your hands dirty and apply what you learn in classroom to practical life. Khair bohot cassette chal gayi, this is just my personal experience I'd like to share if it can help anyone.

Good work man!
Brother can you tell what happens if we are unable to find an internship during our placement year?
Also, should I target high ranked but expensive universities or low ranked will work?
As a former international student i have 3 advices:
1. Dont take up the liability of a car if you live near the campus (walkable or public transport). People buy a car and to pay off installment they have to work more hours.
2. Try to find a job from your talent or something related to your field, cuz then you will have real experience before graduating.
3. Never forget your goal. Every week reflect if your on track to what you want to become. It is ok to take loan and study instead of work hourly and sacrifice your crucial study time. I used to work part time during afternoon and i missed important career fairs and other opportunities.

I completely agree with you that these jobs won't lead to better future opportunities. I always advise incoming students to learn the language of the country, focus on their studies, and socialize with foreigners instead of limiting themselves to only Desis in order to learn more and expand their horizons. You also have a great opportunity to explore the world, so don't hesitate to travel!
I have been in Europe for almost three years.
Junaid Bhai is pure Desi man jo subcontinent ki youth ki jarurat hai❤
Agreed! I am from Pakistan, currently living in Belgium. Every other Pakistani student here is working in Takeaway, Deliveroo or Uber eats. They see short term gains of it, by converting per hour wage to PKR and limit their career to these jobs. However they dont realise that there is no progress in these jobs, no matter how much experience you have, you want be progressing monetarily, rather they should focus on their studies at first place, try and graduate on time, which most dont! and get a job to progress in career.
لیکن پاکستان باہر ترقی کرنے نہ جہاد کرنے جاتے ہے
I agree with you. I also live in Brussels and see many Pakistani students work with Takeaway and Uber eats
Thanks for your input
Just want to let know
Which skills are beneficial to work for
Students going for studying abroad
Can you guide a bit
@@ehsanhaseeb there is no hard and fast rule in life. Focus on what you think will work best for you. As far as skilled are concerned I would say “IT” has a promising future. So see if that aligns with your career aspirations. But most importantly lay down a plan for yourself and plan for things ahead. Manifest to yourself where you want to see yourself? Work towards it and don’t let yourself be pushed in a comfort zone. Apni soch esi rakho ke part time kaam tumhy kabhi full time career na lagy. Not against it, do it of course it’s necessary, but don’t commit to it. Do what can help you transcend. CAREER PLANNING IS IMPORTANT!! Most Pakistani brothers lack it.
I think I couldn't explain properly that time
I just wanted to know
If someone is going abroad for study
Which skills are better
For Earning meanwhile doing his own study to help him or her earn someone to finance studies
That's it .
Apart from the usual things which Pakistani students do
Like
Uber, security guard or takeaways
What are other options
IT is the field of that candidate already
That’s really truth . I live in Germany since approx 6 years . In start I also try to make contact with Pakistani and Dasi community here then I realised that our peoples (people was in my contact just ) just calling when have biryani dawat or etc but I feel unfortunately most of them just have Dasi friends and they are just running from learning German and avoid to talk local so I just started less my contacts and start to learn German and talking with local and in few years with studies and working I got promoted to station assistant head in hospital because of language skills and contact I thanks Junaid Bhai to point out this topic 😊
You mean language skill also give you more opportunities in future I also going in Italy 🇮🇹 so can you give me some tips 💡that would be helpful for me
Like you say we should interact with local than Pakistani
Coming from a person who came as an F1 student in USA in 1992. (I can only say about USA ) So few facts:
1- Foreign students here don’t have much of a choice of work. Legally they can work only 20 hrs on campus. When they are working off campus which is not allowed; Uber, cab driving ect are the only few things they can do (illegally) with your F1 visa status.
2- international student with odd jobs and study will not have time get engaged in extra campus activities. Fact is if they can just keep the grades up that would be enough. As international they have to take 18 credits per semester to keep their F1 status and to save money.
3- Lastly Indians do help Indians and Pakistanis don’t (why!!’ Don’t ask me) this is a fact.

South Indian or India? This is not Pakistan where people call baloch/ Lahori...on the basis of region. Keep your facts right.
Huge difference between Pakistan and India.

Unfamiliar personality
Junaid Akram and your team is a game changer. Always.
you are spot on with the problems that you mentioned as an International student in Australia I prefer doing a job rather than Uber and I am being mocked for not doing Uber as it pays way more than jobs. 2nd biggest problem of Pakistani people is not studying all at Universities. Even people from other countries don't want to be in the group with Pakistanis as they know we don't study and we will eventually pull their score down in a group task.
The most accurate and relatable video!!
As an Indian, I have come across 3 types of Pakistani students:
1) Hard working students who come to study and do better. They are aware of their parents sacrifices and are ready to get educated and get good job. They make upto 10 %to 20 %.
2) Rich kids who come to study to become more attractive to future partners. They have money but need a degree stamp to get married to good family. These are around 40% to 50%.
3) These kids come to get educated but then get attracted to and part of Ummah things. All of a sudden they are worried of every Muslim on this earth. These are usually a little religious to begin with. These start good and by the time 1 st semester ends, their circles are totally different. They make up to 50 % to 60%.
Well said. That is actually true.

@@StavisRutler3 Point mean students get busy in religious things. Like convincing other to convert to Izlam. Preach Religion. Etc.
Asslamualikum. Even Indians could realize if they are also following that track you mentioned. Great video for everyone who is making such mistakes. Content topic might be a neutral one 🎉🎉🇮🇳🇮🇳👏👏Love From India
Just for the students who want to come to the US ,a student visa does not allow off campus work only on -campus jobs such as at the reception desk at the library etc.
Fantastic ..what a thought !! Kudos
Being an international student myself I have observed those Indians or Pakistani students who lack verbal english confidence prefer these security or driving jobs as the customer facing roles like in retail require frequent communication in english, my suggestion would be get in get exposure and with time you will start to pick accents and your confidence and pronunciation of spoken english will improve but if you remain shut in a shell there is little chance of improving yourself. Verbal aspect also helps you in a job interview as well so there is that benefit associated with working in retail or customer facing roles for students.

Thanks for motivating Junaid bhai.
I just moved abroad to study and still looking for job and at this point the video has helped me alot.
Also, I would like to share students can apply to work in universities as well. University offers mini jobs as well.

Wonderfull lesson junaid bhai❤
thank you for showing right path
as a student, I always preferred working in customer service and putting myself in position where I HAVE to communicate with native english speakers. You learn from their culture, you teach them your culture and your English will improve drastically.
Very good observation and correct point
Junaid bhai. Very well explained. I keep on giving the same advice to my daughter
very helful junaid bhai
love from lucknow !!!
So true, saying this cz its been my feeling and the topic of my discussions since day one of my stay in Australia. Hoping to come through so I can set an example and say these things with a backing.
Thanks for sharing ❤
Junaiid Bhai, this video really reflected the True Spirit of a Wealthy Mind. Indeed, you should not focus on the lowest but the Greatest. JazakAllah, Insh'Allah Allah will reward you for this. ❤
Yawr level hai is banday ka❤
Absolutely right.

World needs more people like you!
Being socialized and interactive is not just crucial in other countries but in every country, even if you are living in Pakistan you need to be popular and visible in your field.
Sir, I would like to add an experience of mine with a Pakistani international student in the UK. He was my housemate, working part-time [as security staff] at two stores, and he was getting some employee benefits in terms of a 25% additional discount on all aspects of purchases from their stores, which was a multi-city chain stores like M&S. He bragged about this benefit to me once. I ignored.
After a week or so, he shared that he was fired from both stores, citing the reason that he had shared his employee discount codes [including employee ID and password] with his Pakisthani friends living in Galsgow, where the discount was used.
The store manager got to know this and fired him. I felt sad for him.
Please note: this is just one experience of mine, and I am 100% sure there are many bright Pakistani international students with high ethical values.
Bilkul aisa kiya hoga pakistani students nay but yeh cheezain abroad hum nay indians ko bhi kertay dekha hay.
hi junaid bhai abdullah here i came here in manchester city last week i was really worried about my carrier then i saw your vedios and then my confidence boost up now i will try my best to be a good man and work on these things love your vedio
One of the best video bhai ❤
Completely agree! The thing that I would like to add is even if a certain person is doing these jobs in Uber or Food delivery they can still find a way to explore through business seminar in their cities. Try to attend those seminar on weekends or day off and interact with people as much as they can from their respective field. Eventually, if you're talented and skillful enough, you'll find an opportunity to work in better firm.
Junaid bhai very informative video
❤️❤️❤️Best Motivational speaker
thanks alot sir as international student this video is quite helping for me. thanks
Very informative Bhaii to all South Asian nations.
Great observation Junaid bhai
im in melbourne this is 100 % correct observation.
Thank you junaid bahi i learned a lot from this video
Excellent aspects of Pakistan students with excellent motivation.
A complete package
Strongly agree Junaid bhai .
Good points, I will add one more. When I was coming to US from India ~ 20 years ago, students in tech areas from low opportunity economies like ours had a tendency to pass on pursuing areas that were interesting to them thinking " this will be too difficult or advanced for me". Always the wrong decision. When you understand the level of opportunities and the demand for skills in various technology areas in an economy like the US, you realize there is next to zero chance of not succeeding if you put in the work and make the right decisions. If you find something interesting, DO NOT pass up based on your perception of difficulty and opportunity.
Thanks 👍🏼....brother..luv from India 🇮🇳 for guidance
TBH best video i have heard and i am also a huge fan of your vision Junaid bhai.
On point 💯
Good Junaid bhai
I have studied in Australia and now I’m studying in the UK. I agree with you 100%. I have noticed these things as well and i often advise the same things to my friends. However, I have done uber driving in Australia and although I don’t recommend that you do it full time, i think that doing uber part time is a great way to boost your communication skills and confidence. It’s true that some people don’t want to talk, but most people do. When i was doing uber in Australia i had discussions with people from different professions (Doctors, Lawyers, Accountants, Engineers, Mine workers, business people, actors, musicians, Australian army soldiers, etc). Talking to them gave me deeper understanding into different professions. So i do recommend that you do uber but not full time.
MashaAllah !!
Fully agreed on your point over the nature of parttime job you select, happened to me as well. First professional job selection was mainly influenced by my part time work. But Harry se dosti contributes very little to your success imo.
Ganje sahi topic pakda he. 👏
High-five all the way from Perth 🙌
What I learned is that you align yourself with whatever career path you take. For example, if you want to be in Healthcare, then take a job in a hospital, even if it's as a cleaner. This way, you can write experience on your resume relating healthcare, another Perk of doing this you will find opportunities to apply for higher position jobs in the company which mostly fill from within there department. Always keep your eyes out for that and network with people.

@junaid bhai , very well said.
Volunteer work in any field also will be very helpful for networking and get to know new opportunities.
Completely agree with u. Currently I am teaching undergrads here in canada while doing my masters and I feel that I learn alot from interacting with people from different nationalities.
I’m 100 % agree with your viewpoint
Wonderful and very knowledgable video 👍. Watching from Melbourne (Indian).
Amazing video. Specially the point you mentioned about having multicultural friends, this is the perfect way to grab the accent which obviously helps in the future.. 👍🏻✌🏻

I really enjoyed your videos, I came to Canada and worked in call center for a bank as my first job, which was life altering. Looking back, I would highly recommend everyone to work in service businesses which deal with customers, it will give you life long skills, help you with your communication, conflict resolution, managerial skills and confidence booster. Thanks for great video again Junaid bhai.

Well said Junaid Bhai ❣
Junaid Bhai very well yar...
That's typical desi mindset. Also, it is important to chose university wisely. I had 3 admit in US, Georgia Tech, Cornell and Texas A&M. First 2 were like in top 10 for engineering and A&M was like 15th. I chose A&M as there was good chance of finding paid research there.
Reached there and within 4 weeks found GRA that gave 100% tuition scholarship+ monthly stipend.
Although I can never get US green card as there is decades of wait for people born in India due to US green card quota, but still greatful for providing excellent education and cutting edge research jobs. I have also worked in Australia, Europe, India and Canada. For tech, US has no match in the world.
Thank you Junaid Bhai to giving me these kinds of ideas iam in 1st year and iam Also decided to go abroad and allahamdulilah I can Cook the almost Pakistani foods and now iam learning programing skills from basics and trying to improve communication skills iam fully preparing to myself for next ❤
I will totally agree. Working in retail will also help you develop your communication skills. I also worked on a till for a long time and that helped me understand different English accents and also improve my own English.
How can we work in retail mean in shops or Malls can you explain me this will be helpful for me in future
Junaid Bhai: Very good vlog. I am from India and I have many Pakistani friends. They are funny articulate and can go toe to toe with many of our peers. But i found most of them are from Karachi. I don't know if that makes a difference or not. Many of the Indian students who come here to study actually work in Indian restaurants which takes care of their food and money. They work for a few days a week and then go back to studying during the other days. I also see a ghetto mentality among Indian students too. They hang out with Indians only and they don't come out of their shell. There is an inherent advantage for Indian students that come to USA. Most of them if not all have at least one or two family members that have settled in here for long term and can seek help/advice. This is an advantage I see compared to others. Going abroad to study is to spread your horizons. By sticking together to known set of people or with one specific identity, be it is religion or country or language is detrimental to your own cause.
100% agree with you Junaid bhai
Ganjii on Top💯
Excellent analysis and advice for Pakistani students.. Hope they understand...
I do Uber on the side and most wholesome conversations at were at Uber rides. Those conversations led to further business, more connections and reviews. It's all about perspectives and the person.
