During your OPT, you are eligible to apply for an H-1B visa, which is the work visa for high-skilled migrants. This is the most common way for MBA graduates to stay on and work in the US. To apply for an H-1B visa, you must have an employer sponsor.
Your chances of getting a job in the USA after an MBA are extremely slim. America graduates enough citizen MBAs that it is not typically necessary for employers to jump through the hoops to sponsor someone for a visa.
The only way to get a greencard immediately after an MBA is to get married to a US citizen. If not, as others have outlined, the path is typically getting an H1B visa from a company. Working with them for 3-6 years, then having them apply for a greencard for you.
A graduate on an F-1 visa can obtain an OPT to work in the US for up to 12 months (and STEM 36 months). On OPT, should find an employer to sponsor H-1B. Check F1 to H1B Lottery. Employer petitions your H-1B on a lottery basis in March.
Fortunately, H-1B visa rules favor MBA and business masters graduates. Because there is a lot of demand for the H-1B visa, there is a limited number of visas that can be issued each year.
