Working in the U.S.
Tips
- Use temporary services; some folks have had success linking international students to work as companies are looking for qualified people to complete a project
- Look for companies that have a presence in your home country; these companies are sometimes willing to consider having an international student work in the U.S. for a year and then return to their home country to work at the company
- Some international students have found success acquiring jobs utilizing their language skills (e.g. ESL positions) on the coasts, especially the East Coast
- Check for virtual job fairs by countries; you might learn about
companies to tap into that are in the U.S.
- The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has a presence in other countries that
might provide connections
- Check the alumni office for international alumni groups
- Do not sever ties with your home country, and continue to network with folks in your home country while in the U.S.
Web Resources
Note: Some sites require a subscription and in many cases it is not free. They may require the student to obtain a username/password from the CDC if the CDC is a subscriber to the service (typically students can also get a subscription on their own if the CDC is not a member).
