Apple unable to process H1B @ best time to apply for US Jobs

Jan 29 5 Comments

I got selected in Apple US but HR unable to process as new H1B holder can join after 01 oct and they were looking someone who can join within 2 months.

What is the best time to apply for jobs in US while currently in India only so that new H1B petition could be filled easily companies willing to offer late joining .

Which US companies offer long joining period and sponsorship, if we apply for US jobs ?

  • I can tell you one brutal truth.. if a "team" is looking to hire someone.. they want their selected candidate to start asap. So even if you apply within the "perfect" timing (whatever timing it is), they will "most" likely not process your H1B and the reason is because chances of getting selected in H1B lottery is less.. even if the chance is 90% then also they wont risk it because they aren't sure if you will be able to join them.

    Now we have this out of our way, pay attention to the words inside. " ".. if a company is hiring and not team..such as google, they might place you in some other country meanwhile they figure out the H1B process (This happens very rarely and mostly with candidates OPT). You might be lucky one but who knows.. Anyways, for you to be in that position, you have to really impress them.. or may be come out as rockstar in interview, because ample of candidates are here and they can just be considered. By the above two lines, I simply mean you have to be the candidate they couldn't found in the US.

      Thanks you the valuable input. correct, To stand out someone should have PG degree and specific skillset that can help to get through woods from INDIA.
      The above situation is very rare but In my case it was Hiring manager that directly reached out to me and interview went well but HR was not ready to hold for ~ 7 months due to visa uncertainty.

    Unless you’re a post doc with a unique skill set, I doubt any company would wait 7 months, let alone 7 months and a very high percentage of not being selected.

      Google too, I remember reading. Although it may not be the same team or something like that. I don’t work there.
