Serious?
If money talks, h-1bs will be sponsored.
This has been true for a few years. It’s my understanding that they won’t give you an offer if you require an h1b petition to start employment. But if you can start employment under some different status (OPT, TN status, etc) then they’ll hire you. And they’ll apply for an h1b for you while you’re an employee.
They have stopped giving interviews to people of OPT as well since past 6 months
Not true. I am on OPT, interviewing with Facebook right now. Was also contacted to interview 3 months back for another role, but I didn't like the role so stopped the process after the first HR call.
I spoke to the FB recruiter yesterday and they is okay to transfer h1b.
I got interviewed by FB and they were fine with H1B transfer
Not true. My friend got an offer and they are spnsoring his H1. But I think they have a policy that you should have atleast 24 months of Stem extension remaining
Cleared fb phone interview and was asked to give availability for on-site. Got a call from recruiter the next day saying I have 23 months on STEM OPT, and I cannot interview with them. So they sponsor, but your current visa status should have at least 2 years remaining.
Fake news
True, I heard Apple will stop sponsoring too.
Wow, unbelievable!
Seriously?!
