Once Canada reopens for international tourists, it should be possible to stay there for 14 days and traveling by plane to the US right? Coming from a Schengen country (with US work visa) and looking into options to make my way back to the US. The US/Canada border closure only affects land travel as far as I know..?

If you have a valid work visa, then you’ll have no trouble entering the US from Canada, whether by land or by air. They’re letting in those with work permits/visas now, from my experience.

Why don’t you get a NIE? You can travel directly from Schengen area w that

I know, I have one. I’d say it’s more to properly explain why you play a vital role in your us company rather than qualifying in an exhaustive list

How soon is too soon to quit a job? I took what seemed like a great offer, with competitive pay, a hybrid schedule, and 15% travel. However, I’m about 1.5 months in and the job is miserable. I’m working 50 hour weeks with no breaks to keep up with the demand, there is minimal training or support, I can’t work hybrid yet, I get 24/7 phone calls, and they’ve asked me to travel once a month for the remainder of the year. At this point, I’m only staying for fear of how it will look on my resume.

Wanted to know how different is management consulting in the US via-a-vis India?

Background : working as front end consultant in India.

Sr Managers have no sense of personal space in most companies. Money is goood.

Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%
