Any Canadian 🐠 have tips for applying to jobs in the USA?

I assume that visa eligibility is the biggest question you have to pre-answer but would love more insight. I probably need to hold off on applications until the president is confirmed either way 😅

Its actually pretty easy to get a visa sponsorship for Canada - I reccomend reaching out to your current firm if you genuinely want to change locations.

Im at a boutique which unfortunately won't sponsor 😕

Agreed. Why would you want to come here??

The nice thing is I can leave if it gets very bad, but the pay and opportunities in Canada are still so much lower that coming to work in the US.

If you guys do have any tips LMK and thank you 😊

I am planning to shift to Data Analyst/Data scientist role. Right now i work for a project where I'm a software eng & we have to maintain our application on C++ code. It is more like support/dev and unit testing combined. Coding is hardly involved and my hold on DS is weak so not sure if I'll be able to crack technical interviews for C++ dev or anything similar.
So is this a right decision to move from application dev role to Data Science/analyst field? Does software engineer gets paid more?

Does anyone have experience interviewing with Deloitte Internal Services? I had my final interview a week and a half ago, and received positive feedback throughout.

The role still shows as “Interviews in Process.” We did discuss potential start dates, but no salary. Any experience with receiving offers for an internal services role? Is this common?
