today’s US job market
4. Special issues and resources for international
students
5. *NEW* Bullseye powered by Handshake
6. Career Services resources & services
7. Internship/Job Search Strategies
9. 1. US Economy
2. Employers’ “fear” of immigration regulations
3. Insufficient knowledge of US culture and US
work-related customs and employer
expectations
4. H-1B cap
10. 1. The US economy is getting much stronger
although some employers are still taking a
“wait and see” attitude
a) This has also led to employers doing more “just in time”
hiring.*
11. 1. The majority of employers have had little or
no experience with immigration and other
federal regulations affecting international
candidates in the US workplace*
2. H-1 Visa Status has become highly politicized
in the last decade
12. 1. It is illegal for employers to make interview or
hiring decisions based on a person’s national
origin, citizenship, age, religion, gender,
race or disability (and sometimes sexual
orientation.)
2. However, it is legal for a US employer to not
interview or consider for hire any person who
is not authorized to work indefinitely in the
US
3. Some employers may choose to only consider
US citizens
13. A challenge – the international student’s
insufficient knowledge of U.S. work-related
culture and employer expectations.
1. It is the applicant’s responsibility to
acquaint him/herself with what US employers
expect*.
2. US employers, for the most part, expect
international students to adjust to the
corporate culture, as opposed to the
corporation adjusting to the new employee’s
culture (at least at first)
19. 1. Using Curricular Practical Training (CPT) and Optional
Practical Training (OPT)
2. The “OPT Extension”
3. Finding companies willing to Sponsor for H-1B Visa
4. Answering the Work Authorization question(s) on
online job applications
5. The H-1B Visa “cap”
6. Employment “Contracts”
7. Student perspective vs. Employer perspective
20. Using Curricular Practical Training (CPT) and
Optional Practical Training (OPT)
1. CPT for internships. Must register for academic
credit. May only use while in school.
2. OPT may be used for internships and full time
employment. May be used during school and
after graduation. (Most students will save their OPT
for after graduation!)
21. The “OPT Extension”
OPT 12 months + OPT STEM Extension 24 months =
36 months of OPT.
What are the eligibility requirements for the 24-month
extension of post-completion OPT?
1. The student must have a bachelor’s, master’s or doctorate
degree in a STEM field.
2. The employer must be enrolled in E-Verify. (A Federal
government program.)
3. The student must apply on time (at least 90 days before the
current post-completion OPT expires).
22. Finding companies willing to Sponsor for H-1B Visa
NOTES:
1. You may not work for the US Federal government or
Department of Defense (DoD) Contractors
2. Companies who have sponsored in the past understand
the process and may consider sponsoring again
3. YOU must be able to explain the sponsorship process to a
company who has never sponsored before.
a) You must understand the visa & paperwork process
4. When reviewing Job Fairs make note which employers
have said they are willing to consider international
candidates
23. Finding companies willing to Sponsor for H-1B Visa

1. Review the H-1B visa database from the

24. Answering the Work Authorization questions on job
applications
Are you legally authorized to work in U.S.?
a) Yes
b) No
c) Answer: You are allowed to answer YES to this
question. You have legal authorization to work in the
U.S. with your CPT or OPT work authorization.
25. Answering the Work Authorization questions on job
applications
Will you now or in the future require sponsorship?
a) Yes
b) No
c) Answer: A little more complicated…
1. The employers would like you to answer the
spirit/intention of the question, which means you will
answer “YES”.
2. Student perspective - I only plan to work in the U.S.
during my OPT then go home, so I plan to answer “No”.
i. Be aware that this could be a problem for you later.
26. The H-1B Visa “cap”*
There are 65,000 H-1B visas available each year
The past few years their has been twice the number
of applicants (~130,000 applicants)
• A lottery system is used to determine which applicants
are awarded a H-1B work visa
Make sure to attend ISSS workshops!
27. Employment “Contracts”
Employment contracts are legal and appropriate in
the United States
*Caution* - have a lawyer review your documents
before you sign to clarify and verify your
commitments and obligations!

when I go back home.”
3. “I’ll just use my OPT and
