Good evening everyone!

I’m interested in moving to the US. I currently live in Canada and I’m looking to move to the US on TN status. For anyone who has applied for a TN visa/status, how did you navigate applying for jobs? On applications did you mention you required sponsorship? Were you able to secure positions by applying through job websites or did you only get through by networking? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You don't require sponsorship so just answer No to the question and in your first interview with HR, clarify you are Canadian but don't need sponsorship, just a job offer. If you answer Yes to the sponsorship question you are going to get filtered out upfront from many jobs.
