I am a student of computer science from India and specialize in Artificial Intelligence & Robotics. I have a few conference papers to my name and I'll take up my GRE exams in a short while. I wish to pursue PhD from the US. Let us say I make it to one of the top 50 grad schools in US in the next academic session(just an assumption ).

What are my chances of landing a good R&D job in industry after completing PhD. I do not wish to stay in academia throughout my career. I do not wish to teach. Post - PhD, I'd prefer a transition to industrial R&D.

What are my chances? Any advice? Please help.
