These days lot of people are getting rfe. Even sw to sw and hw to hw. No one can aasure you anything regarding that. You can give it a try.
Yes. I have seen both HW and SW get RFEs. In case of SO kind of RFEs, lawyers try to establish you as a strong candidate by creating arguments based on your education qualifications and previous experiences. If you get such RFEs, it may be difficult to put together arguments because your previous experiences are different than your new role. It all depends on how attorneys project you as a strong candidate for this role.
So the company will file for transfer after I accept the offer right ?
Yes.. since you mentioned the new company is a fang, it will atleast take 4-6 weeks.
Make sure your job duties in the petition have specific work related information. Try to have higher levels and correct SOC code that is closely related to job duties. There are some SOC codes which are more prone to receive SO RFEs.
Thanks ! What’s SOC code ? When does new company file for transfer petition ? Before or after accepting the offer ?
Which SOC codes are prone to RFE?
