Hi, I am posting this on behalf of a friend who got laid off 8 months ago and is searching for her next job. She does not have access to Blind anymore. -------------------------------------------------- I am actively looking for Product/ Program/ Technical Program Manager roles with over 4+ years of experience in Software, Netwoking and Finanace domains and would greatly appreciate any referrals for the same if your company is actively hiring. I'm interested in opportunities located in California, Seattle, or Texas but open to other locations as well. It’s been around 8 months since I was laid off and during this period I have interviewed for a few company’s but either have been ghosted by recruiters, did not make it or the company knocked off the position itself. I currently hold a valid B2 visa with an extension until August 2024 and can easily transition to an H1B visa upon securing a suitable position. It has been a very stressful situation for me. I would really appreciate any help. Thank you for your time and consideration.
A B2 visa can’t be easily transitioned to H1B, can it? I believe he’d have to go through the lottery again.
No, already had H1B in the past. You don't need to go through lottery again unless you have exhausted the 6 years and don't have an i140
B2 is only max 6 months. How 8?
Extension
If ‘your friend’ is from India, there are tons of job openings at Google Indian offices. We pay decent comps. Maybe worth checking out since cost of living is much lower
Doesn't want to go back to India yet for a few more years.
Life in India is not as bad compared to US, why clinging here so much? Many jobs are moving to India now!!! Or try moving to Canada, but again Canada is much worse than India
I will find her a placement within 30-35 days- she can even meet us up in San Jose if she wants to! Just DM me her CV and I will find her a placement I run a staffing firm
Seems scammy
Alright mate, it’s a scam - happy now? I revealed my address while doing scams yay, I am stupid scammer and you caught me. Such a smarty!
Please post your friends profile by redacting personal details
Let me check with her on that
