welcome to USA !
Jobs will depend on what kind of visa/work permit u have and what kind of salary u r looking at ?

Thanks Anil,
Currently I'm holding h4, so that becomes an issue.Salary is not a top priority.
Looking forward for the ways...

so u need it to comvert it to H1...the easiest way is to get hold of a desi consultant and get the sponsership...well u will have to pay for it, though its not legal. ANother problem is that its taking a very long time (i heard its abt 4 mons now) for H1 processing.
Since, jobs in USA are so rare now it will be extremly difficult. But, there are a few sectors which are picking up. In 99% cases local candidates are preferred, so u have to look for a job within ur driving range.

good luck!
