Hi everyone, I am first year audit staff who has been affected by the recent layoffs at EY. I am also on H1-B therefore I need to find a job within the next two months to maintain my status in the country. If anyone here knows any accounting firms who are hiring and willing to sponsor, please let me know

This won’t be too helpful, but you may need to take an emergency “job” to stay in the country while you find the career position you are looking for. I’m sorry this happened to you.

Been there. It's tough to be on H1B visa and possibly waiting for greencard application. Good luck.

Wow cause when I was there that was all they were hiring. I’m no longer there, finally gained my peace of mind back.

Reach out to people you worked with and ask them if they know of people in other firms or industry that can provide a referral for you.

Make a list of companies, go on LinkedIn and search for your college alumni that work at those companies and ask to connect with them and talk to them. If they agree to talk with you over a call, talk to them about their role and their company and if it’s something you find you’d fit in, politely ask for a referral. You’re on a time crunch so you gotta make as many connections as you can on LinkedIn and using other ways.

You get to pick a choose who if the engagement don’t let you know. Usually they send out an email letting you know who you need to request LEAD from but if not then you can pick whoever in those 3-4 engagements
