Earlier research examining the problems faced by Saudi students studying in different cultures led to the development of strategies that motivated them and helped them to succeed. Some of these strategies are time management, study skills, study groups, and tenacity. The principal aim of this qualitative phenomenological study was to evaluate the employment satisfaction of several students who graduated from Saudi or American universities to determine their satisfaction with their current jobs and whether their diplomas from Saudi or American universities made a difference. For example, were they going to have more opportunities in the job market based on their diploma because of the differences in language, in education, in culture, in religion, and in learning styles? This study is relevant because it examines the relationship between the level of learning acquired in U.S. and Saudi Arabian universities. Data for this study were collected from interviews with 16 employees at different organizations in Saudi Arabia: eight Saudi graduates from American universities and eight from Saudi universities. The researcher used Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Theory to evaluate participants' job satisfaction. Two primary themes are presented: 1) each participant's current job and its connection to Maslow's Five Basic Needs and 2) job satisfaction or dissatisfaction. In addition, several sub-themes arose from the first: 1) physiological needs, 2) safety and security, 3) love and belonging, 4) self-esteem, and 5) self-actualization. The findings discovered differences in job satisfaction between Saudi graduates from Saudi universities and those from American universities. Implications and limitations are presented, and recommendations for improvement by Saudi Arabian educational institutions and organizations are made.
