Day1 CPT at Walmart, Cerner and Intel

Hello Blind community, you’ve been super helpful always! # Does Intel, Walmart and Cerner take interviews of candidates who are on Day1 CPT ? Do they allow employees to keep working on Day1 CPT if employees are not picked in 3 lottery attempts of OPT ? I have an interview scheduled. Please advice if I should mention it to HR. What other companies allow working on Day1 CPT ? Thanks #stemopt

Not sure about interview, but you can continue working on Day 1 CPT at Walmart if your H1B doesn't get picked.

Does Walmart offer an option to go to any other country and return on L1 visa ?

Walmart kXem45 Mar 18, 2021

They do allow you to go to india but it's a long process to come back on L1. You'll have to find a team to take you in first, then work there for some minimum time, 1 year I think, then must have a team ready to sponsor you back to USA.

Any idea if people currently on Day1 CPT can interview for roles?

Intel digiguy1 Mar 18, 2021

No Idea

So, I'm assuming you plan to get in on F-1? In that case, if you exhaust all of your STEM extension and your H1-B didn't come along. Yes, Cerner does support you to continue your employment on a CPT that you receive via enrollment to a college that supports day 1 CPT.

In walmart,If your team has a presence in india its a cakewalk to move ..same team same manager same project just work from india..instead of paying you 150k base they can wrap you up in 60-80k TC..why not?
