Engineering degree. Medicine. Computer science. It may sound prejudiced but east Indians are collectively much smarter than most of the west. You will not see them working at McDonald's or even many blue collar jobs. They are engineers, doctors, developers, and programmers and such, and they don't have trouble finding jobs in the US if the US knows what's good for them.

@puck61: I agree. So many of US industries are so government controlled that they have become regulatory compliance driven. I had a neighbor who worked in the legal department of a semi-government agency and 80% of their work was resolving employee squabbles. People from India are seen as smarter and more professionally or goal focused on what it is they do rather than on how to fit into the system.
