I got a verbal offer from Microsoft. I'm currently on stem OPT and my visa is gonna expire in 9 months. So technically I won't be eligible for next year's H1b lottery. Is Microsoft gonna rescind my offer ? #microsoft
Vancouver, BC Is for visa related issues
No. Microsoft is great for visa hires. I was in the same boat
Thanks mate
How long did it take to hear back after on-site?
2 weeks. Delay was due to the spring break as per the recruiter
Gotcha. Thank you. Finished my loop 2 weeks ago and still waiting to hear back. Did they e-mail or call you?
they will park you in canada or uk if you have issues and they consider you to be important
Nice to know ☺️
OP if you are at ByteDance, you know ByteDance also parks people in Vancouver office haha. Good luck! Canada is the parking lot of US tech companies. I've lived in Canada for 2 years for work - honestly it's pretty good.
Don't worry they will figure out something
