Finding a job in India

Hi, I've just graduated from uni in the UK and want to go into journalism. There's not much on over here but I've heard there's many more jobs in India. How realistic is it to go out there on a tourist visa, try and find a job and then get a work visa off that? Also how strict are the Indian government on insisting companies have to be employed before foreigners?
Thankyou.

I would imagine India is the same as most third world countries.. salaries are low

You will get the salary in rupees which would be very low. You have to struggle a lot also. So its better to give a full try in your own country. If it doesn't work out you can consider other options which would be more feasible for you.

There is no dearth of educated Indians in journalism and if you see the TV channels or print media you will find any expat so it would be better if you stick to your own country or try in USA / Europe. As other mentioned in their replies salaries in India are low and employers very demanding.
