Is studying in France (especially Paris) worth it if I'm worried about getting a job afterward?
​
Hi everyone,
I've been thinking a lot about studying in France, preferably in Paris, and honestly, I'm feeling conflicted.
I'm genuinely interested in building a career there, especially in the luxury industry, but I'm worried about the job market after graduation.
Here are the things that keep running through my mind:
How difficult is it for international students to find a job in France after a master's?
Is speaking French at a B2 level enough, or do employers expect near-native fluency?
Are companies actually willing to hire and sponsor international graduates?
Has anyone regretted choosing France because they couldn't find work afterward?
If you graduated in the last couple of years, how long did it take you to get your first job?
If you could go back, would you still choose France?
I'm not looking for reassurance. I'd really appreciate honest experiences, whether positive or negative. I want to understand the reality before investing a significant amount of time and money.
