It is also purely based on what is your interest and expertise, check where you are finding it easy before you plan your travel. But yes, you will definitely find a job in India as there are many job opening, but how much it will be suitable for you in terms of benefits and perks compared to where you live now is something you should think of.

India is a beautiful country and has diversity of people residing here.
Start talking to people and explore the city you are going to reside in.
Initially it would be better to stay in a metropolitan city so that you don't feel much difference in the environment.
Best of Luck!
hope this was helpful!
Thanks,

Vidhi’s Answer
In my view, these are some of the considerations one should have while moving to a new place -
- Be open minded : Its natural that you would find difference in people, culture & the surrounding environment. Don't flood your mind with perceptions based on someone else's experiences. Dont have apprehensions
- Embrace the change - Change is always a little painful. The best way to to enjoy the change is to first accept it ! Be ready for some pleasant and some not so nice surprises. Its good to be flexible and mould yourself based on the need and environment
- Go prepared, learn about the new place and people in advance
- Enjoy the journey - Last but not the least, dont be overly concerned.. Enjoy the new experience and journey !!

Great to know that you want to move back to India. There are a lot of people wanting to come back now since there are a lot of opportunities from career perspective.
Some of the things to note:
Its probably easier to settle in a bigger city like Bangalore/Hyderabad as job opportunities are more there. It will also be easier to adjust the lifestyle.
India is basically a young country so there are a lot of young people who will be looking for a similar job .Hence you have to be ready for the competition. So it better to have some unique skillset which will make you standout in a crowd.

First thing as few had already suggested here, if this is still being planned, think through the decision on what are the pros and cons. Some things just work better there, and some things work better here.
Once you have finalized on the decision, it would always be better to try moving into the job you're looking for, before the relocation. This should spare you of the job hunt phase. Also as there a lot of opportunities out here, hopefully you should be able to move into a new role which you had been eyeing for a long time.
Best of luck!

Praveen’s Answer
First off, think through your decision. Make a pros and cons list. Be ready for a change. There are certain things that you get used to in United States, but once back in India you may frustrate yourself if you expect the same here as well.
Most importantly, give yourself time to adjust to the change. With Digitization, there are lots of stuff that can be done online and through mobile.
Great point.

Farzana’s Answer
The thing is, Indians think that the West have a very bad sense of values. That is not true. India would encourage discipline and punctuality. They encourage you to be creative, to think out of the box. Society is free. Free thinking is encouraged.
The culture that you see is nothing like Indian culture you are free to have your opinion. Society will have something to say, regardless of what you do. Free thinking is not encouraged. Hypocrisy is rife.
