Imigration status is on almost every job application. Some people have told me that if you need a visa just put NO so that you are not automatically disqualified and then explain your situation later if you make it to the offer stage. Thoughts on this strategy? Haven't tried it, but thinking about using it.

Doesn't work. It actually backfires. When a potential employer realizes that they spent time on reviewing your resume, possibly setting up interviews with you and then cannot hire you because of your visa status, its disheartening and a time waste. They may put you on blacklist for wasting their time. IMHO, do not do that. Be Honest.

Sponsorship has implications that cant be adjusted for even if the hiring team really wants you after the interviews. There are legal timelines, budgets, etc. Lying about it would waste your own time.

I wouldn’t do it. For some positions, we may not be able to hire people who need visas (may not have the budget to support the legal work involved, for example) so to go through the process of interviewing and then finding out your status is really bad form.

If the person does this, and they have a contact outside of the US it is a instant no.

Sorry, my brain was quicker than my fingers, a contact address.

US immigration question. Green card interview date was cancelled in March 2020. It’s been a whole year of just waiting for a reschedule date, so the I-485 is transferable (e.g. to another state, another employer). Has anyone transferred their i-485 to another employer? What was that process like? Would my process start from the interview phase? How did you prove that the next job was in the same category? Please mention if you did the process before or during the pandemic. Thanks so much.

Hello all! I’m in the interview process for a 1 year contract-to-hire role. I have one final interview next week, but I really have enjoyed meeting the company. Should they extend an offer, I would be glad to accept, but I would prefer the contract to hire term to be shortened.

When is a good time to negotiate that term? Once the offer is made? A few weeks in? And should I approach the company directly or the staffing agency?

So I have been offered a job at multinational company as a Data Engg. It was a part of the hiring event, and literally got selected with a VERY VERY SIMPLE technical assessment, and a 45 minute interview.

Just that the process was way too easy so quick. I do not even know the hiring manager.

Has someone been a part of this before? Any suggestions if I should go for it? What should I ask?
