Can anyone share their experience of trying to find another job while on H1B after a layoff? Are companies accepting H1B transfers and if yes, which companies are best to focus on? I’m a product manager in tech and seeking new employment in tech, banking or fintech companies.

At the moment the market is very hard. Almost all - if not all- do not sponsor any visas. By law since Obama with Biden as VP (2011), all firms have to prove that they have made an effort to find a US Citizen for the role. This is what Obama called “buy American and Hire American” to which he received a standing ovation with Pelosi crying tears of joy standing behind him.
That policy still exists and is enforced for every role posted.
I wish you the best of luck but you may have to start thinking of returning back home. You have 90 days to find a job.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

I have been offered a position at a non-US B4 with a 2 year path to partner.

The KPIs seem achievable and I’ll be in charm school to help build support within that timeline. Most of me thinks a 2 year path under these circumstances realistic but my inner skeptic is jaded.

Hi all, I’m looking to learn about how one can transition from PwC AC to PwC India.
I joined PwC AC Bangalore as a fresher and have been working here for 13 months.
I was randomly assigned to SAP, but I’ve realised I really want to move away from this and move towards what I originally planned on pursuing i.e. data analysis, I was already well versed in ML and DL with python.
If anyone has made a similar transition, it would be great if you could help me understand how do I go about this.

I’ve always gotten the advice that when you want to switch jobs you should take interviews from places you’re not actually interested in, so you can understand your value in the market and have better negotiating power.

I’m doing that rn - took a couple interviews to gauge my skills, my market value, and see what I need to work on for interviews that I actually care about.

However, I feel really guilty about wasting their time and going all the way knowing I’ll just say no at the end. Wwyd?
