US citizen, will complete my MSc in Operations Management in London. Any chance of finding work in UK after?
what are my chances as an American? will anyone offer me a job? I am a bit worried!!! I will have a VISA for my studies and will apply to extend it for 2 years in order to work in UK. My goal is to settle in England as my extended family all live there. Thank you!

Unfortunately you are right to be worried. With the current recession thousands of well qualified people are losing their jobs at the moment in the UK. Perhaps your qualifications are well suited to a particular demand where candidates are in short supply. I hope so. Good luck

In order to obtain a work visa, you will have to return to the USA and apply from there. Visas are almost impossible to get at the moment as companies have to offer jobs to UK then EU citizens first. If you can find a company based in the US with a UK base you can get them to sponsor a visa for you stating that you are the only person who can do that job. You cannot work for more than 20 hours a week on a student visa.
