I am a Canadian intermediate designer / art director with close to 5 years working at a large national advertising agency. My partner recently found a job in the US, and has decided to move for this new job. How difficult is it to get sponsored in the US as a designer / art director role?

As a Canadian, it shouldn’t be too difficult. You can apply for something called a TN visa under the Designer designation, which your company will do for you. It’s a temporary visa though so it will never count toward permanent residency.

I’m interviewing for a start up and the role sounds interesting. Usually for the “test” part of the interview I’ve had to analyze data.

Is this a lot for an interview?

When I moved in-house a year ago as a BigLaw mid-level, I took a 45% pay cut, far more than I was comfortable with (although I was fine with a 20-30% cut). I took the job because it was a great role and I was focused on making the jump in house and developing the skills I wanted, which required me moving away from my firm practice area. Now that my year-end review is coming up, how do I ask my company for a significant pay raise (not just a 2-5% inflation-matching raise)?
