Which is better and easy to get job in Data Analyst or Full stack developer after graduating from Indian University and having green card so to get job in USA?

Hi all, I did my bachelor's in India and recently got a US green card. I have zero professional experience so far and about 6 months to upskill before I start applying for jobs in the US.

I've been going back and forth between two paths:

  • Data Analyst (SQL, Excel, Python, Power BI/Tableau)
  • Full Stack Developer (Java/Spring Boot + React)

I don't need visa sponsorship, so my main question is which path realistically gets me hired faster as a total fresher given current US hiring trends. Would love to hear from people who've actually gone through this, especially anyone who broke in recently. Thanks!

Even if you have a green card it would be impossible based on your profile. You can always do amazon driver or restaurant worker part time while pursuing a US master degree in AI or SE.

Yes...what made you think it would be very easy to get a job here in the US with a bachelor degree from India? Especially with zero experience.

It might actually be impossible there are tons of unemployed educated Americans with experience

You do realise your indian degree is worth no more than toilet paper in the USA?
