^so what is the point then ?

No. As a franchisee, if you are issued a W2 by the parent chain/company then you cannot. In general the rule is that on H1B only your H1B sponsorer employer can issue you an W2

Haven't you heard - "You are not a Patel, if you do not own a motel"?

Yes you can. I am on H1B and own one. Talk to a good attorney. The only downfall, you cannot withdraw money from your business.

I've received 2 offers to FAANG companies this year as Sr Product Mgr, got along brilliantly with the teams, but ultimately neither were willing to help process my visa in this climate. I know folks have it more rough, but feeling pretty bummed out.

I have been approached with an opportunity at JP Morgan Chase for their private client advisor role. The book is about 30M all in.

I currently make about 160k and if JPM would give me a high draw for the first 3 years to build, and if it’s feasible to sustain that 160+ there.

Hi All,

I’m struggling to book an F2 visa appointment on the ustraveldocs website and would appreciate any advice.

I see appointments throughout India but when I select and click proceed, I get a “no ofc appointment available at this location” error. In this constant back and forth I’m ending up exceeding the number of checks I can do, thus potentially freezing my account for 72 hours”
Any idea on how/what the issue could be for ?

I moved to the Netherlands 3 months ago on a spouse visa. Was working with EY-P earlier. I have been applying to jobs and giving interviews but for some reason things are not working out. I get a different reason everytime (after going through the whole process). This has never happened earlier in life and now I don't know what else to do. I have worked as a strategy consultant (& a researcher). Should I change lines? Where else can I try?
I can't apply to boutique firms since Dutch is mandatory

I’ve been having a super hard time concepting lately, especially knowing that the “concept” will mostly serve as a sticker to slap on the cover of a CVA and the top of a website. I feel like every pharma concept I’ve ever seen or created becomes so cheesy once it appears in tactics. Does anyone have any examples of HCP creative (non-DSA) that is both impactful and translates well into pharma tactics?
