Interested in hearing how H-1B sponsorship happens from the inside?
Dan Beaudry, former head of campus recruiting at Monster.com and author of the book “Power Ties: The International Student’s Guide to Finding a Job in the United States,” shares the potent job search system used by many international students to find U.S. employment.
H-1Bs are won in ways you might not expect. What you’ll learn in this presentation may surprise you:
- How to secure H-1B sponsorship at companies that have a policy against sponsoring H-1B visas
- Why 80% of open jobs are never advertised — and how to find them before anyone else
- Why human resources often is an obstacle instead of a conduit to finding a job in the U.S. and how to bypass it
- Why submitting résumés online is not an effective use of your time and how you can better invest that time
