I am an international candidate who needs visa sponsorship(H1B) for a visual/brand/graphic designer role. I have 4YOE Any of Amazon / Meta / Snapchat / Tiktok / Apple / Coinbase or smaller startups like Applied Intuition / Merge / Hover willing to sponsor a visa? If so, do I have to wait until next April for the process and start working in October 2024? Should I consider a graduate degree in the US for the OPT? #workvisa #h1b
Considering the glut of laid off designers still looking for jobs, it’s highly unlikely that you will land a job due to your immigration needs. Better to move to Canada for few years, gather some experience and then try to come to US.
This, except design jobs are even harder to get in Canada because there are simply fewer positions there. Timing is bad, wait two years until the economy starts to recover.
