shares the potent job search system used by many international students and trainees to find U.S. employment. H-1B’s are won in ways you likely don’t expect. What you’ll discover in this presentation may surprise you:<br>
• Learn how to secure H-1B sponsorship at companies that have a policy against sponsoring H-1B visas.<br>
• Learn why 80 percent of open jobs are never advertised – and how to find them before anyone else.<br>
• Learn why human resources is often an obstacle instead of a conduit to finding a U.S. job-and how to bypass it.<br>
• Learn why submitting résumés online is not an effective use of your time-and how you can better invest that time.<br>
<br>
