Hey guys, I recently accepted an offer(not R&d) from one of the hot start ups. My start date is first week of April and currently I am undergoing the H1b transfer process.

That aside, I feel I am severely underpaid in my current job for the experience I have and really want to make a move. Do you guys recommend that I keep interviewing while the transfer is in process?( Incase this transfer get denied, I will have another offer to work on)

      Thanks much, we will submit my petition by Friday and I hopefully will know something in 2 weeks.

      I am moving from professional services to a role similar to SE and have Ms in CS and undergrad in IT.

    Are u crazy? If the company is already sponsoring your h1b then why leave it? Yes I understand ur concerns about money but in Bay Area and trumps administration goodwill is all that will keep you alive for more years. I would suggest you to wait 6 months (3-4at min) before going to a different company.

      Hey, I am not saying I will quit. All I am asking, is it recommended to keep looking in case this H1b transfer doesn’t work out.
