Rupankit Saha considers himself to be among the lucky ones. He was able to get a job at a multinational company in Edinburgh, Scotland, in 2017, after completing an undergrad degree in accounting and finance at the University of Exeter in the UK. The transition from an international student on a tier-IV visa to a tier-II visa was smooth only because his employer sponsored him for the work visa even before he graduated.
