Hmm. I’m attracted to engineers..

Hi,
I will be joining EY GDS Kol consulting on 5th Dec, however, I have a flight on 5th morning and will be landing by 11 a.m.. Just want to know if NHO will be on 5th only? If yes, will it be offline or online and what time does NHO begin?

Showers feel fukin amazing

Moved to Dallas a few months ago, anyone else think it’s strange that so many neighborhoods use rear entry garages and people drive through alleys to get to them? Never saw these growing up.

Not going to mention the firm or the engagement but heard that a senior manipulated a PBC to agree to their work paper and was curious if this happens more often than I thought. Am I naive to be in shock about this?!

Anyone use the WHOOP strap? I created a team for traveling consultants - DM me your user name and I’ll add you to the team!

Hello, everyone. My team is looking for a fundraising professional for principal gifts.

Hey everyone! This is my first time posting but I thought I’d try to ask, I received a request from a recruiter to interview for a new insurance company I’ve never heard of: Branch. Looked it up and it seems to be a new “Techsurance” company working with both home and auto policies. Does anyone have any information they could share about this company? Thank you!

Is ethereum the new Bitcoin? Do you invest in it? Why/why not?

My wife and I are moving to Boston from overseas (we’re from Italy and we’ve recently won the diversity visa green card lottery).

We are looking to rent a 1BR starting in January, ideally for ~$3k/month. I’ll be working in the downtown area.

Do you recommend we go for a serviced/luxury apartment (e.g. Montaje, 345 Harrison, etc.) or hire a broker to get a “normal” apartment?

Any managed buildings recommendations within our budget? Also, what are some good brokers we could work with?

Thanks!

anyone know where to get study aides??

What app do you guys use to buy? Seems like Coinbase only has 3 cryptos, RH only 2. Is there a single app that has all or a large selection to choose from ?

What was discussed in the townhall today

is biometric appointment for h4 COS also adding to delays for h4 COS and EAD? or we can schedule an appointment as soon as COS is applied? someone told me it’s taking 2 years these days for h 4 ead approval 1 year for h4 cos another year wait time for biometric and few months for ead is that true? From what i read and understood it takes around 12 months for entire process including biometric

Can those not picked in lottery earlier this year and whose status still reads submitted still expect a selection over the next 2 months in case those selected are denied approval?

Hi All-
Need a suggestion. H1 maxing out in sept 2021.
Got a job offer from small consulting firm (<200 people) and they are ready to file my GC from day1. About to resign in next couple of weeks once I receive my h1 approval.
But Deloitte sent a notification that they are restarting Perm process. Currently with Deloitte - nothing has been filed. They have the JD and all the documents from my side but haven’t filed pwd yet. Stay or move out .?

Anyone had gone through from E3 to GC route without moving to H1B. This is coming from a Non Aussie born individual. Can anyone share the timeline and experience? Thanks

Can H1B holders filed unemployment when serving grace period for 60 days? D provided information in Separate Memorandum?

I have a joke about H1Bs, but it is RFEd

Any regular processing selections out there?

Any experience with Vermont service center H1B transfer recently without PP? Pls share timeline..

Someone here asked recently which candidate would be better for workers like us who are here legally with all the credentials, paying US taxes just like Americans. I kind of laughed inside and I still do. Why even ask? Did any other administration excessively hate us this much to the point the rules changed substantially gazillion times a year? Let’s be real. This is nothing more than direct targeting of us. How can anyone not know which is at least less worse? 😂

New offer. What does this mean?: “Policy is that we don’t consider the green card until someone is at 2.5 years prior to the last extended date on their current visa.”

Does EY withdraw approved I-140 after leaving the firm, particularly if it's within 180 days? Our immigration policy says "The firm will withdraw sponsorship upon termination" but kinda vague and I wonder what the real life cases be like? Thanks!

What kind of companies open to hire on H4 work authorization? Does it include startups?

Hi all - which countries are accepting Third country national (TCN) stamping appointments for h1b? Any recent experiences to share? TIA

For people having serious plans to go back to home country in future, what is the general timeline you are targeting at? I still have 4 years on H1B and my spouse is on OPT and we are thinking contd..

Has anyone considered the idea of traveling to Mexico to get stamping? For context I am in L1 and extension was approved last month. I need to travel outside to India for personal reason which does not qualify for emergency visa.

Those who've had to let go following an H1B denial, does the firm expect you to resign or is this counted as 'Termination for cause'

Will PWD processing times get better any time soon?

Is someone here stuck on the job title because of the GC processing? I am just so frustrated… it’s making me mentally exhausted since I’ve been working as a Senior for 5 years already. My PERM is still in process and planned to be filed next year.

Hearing h1 extensions aren’t getting rejected all time high. I just submitted my extension ☹️
