Certainly, the job market for NEDian is better than before, but still, if you compare how many engineers are being produced by various engineering universities and how many decent jobs are created by current economy, there is no match. Also, getting a good job, in a reputed organization requires some source.... That's what I feel

Also, most of the jobs are created in engineering sales, support, and operations. I don't much of investment going in Pakistan for real development work.
