A friend of mine (ex software engineer) is trying to land a UX and/or Product Designer position. If she can’t get a job by the end of the month she has to leave the country due to her student via expiring. Anybody on Blind have any leads? Much appreciated
Does she want to look for a software eng job?
She needs a job in her field of study for her OTP visa - recent back to grad school grad.
She should look at positions as a prototyper esp with her skillset. Will keep her on the path to Product Designer pretty quick
^great point! Is she really really good at html/css/javascript? If so my company may be looking for a senior UX engineer for the Design System team
Do companies even sponsor H1B for entry-level positions?
She’s on OPT so she’s good for like 40 months if she can get a job. Then, during that time, go for the H1-B visa.
