H1B Visa Employment

Post Tue Dec 13, 2011 3:16 pm

Hello,

Has anyone tried to use services of the sites such as "H1B Base" in search of the H1B employment?
Thank you.

DO NOT PAY TO USE THEIR SERVICES... I checked them out when I first moved here in '07 and all they do is post job ads recycled from Career Builder and Monster.com... You are better off going with a headhunter.

Thank you for your reply. I am glad I checked first. Do you have someone you can recommend (headhunters)?

That is totally dependent on your field of work.. I know Aerotek hires specifically for IT jobs and others that hire for the medical field. What type of work are you looking for?

I have a BComm degree in Business and I have been working in the banking industry (compliance/audit) for the last few years. Not sure what my chances are at this time....

KPMG and Deloitte hires Accountants and Auditors...

Since your degree is in Banking and Commerce, you may (and take this with a mere pint of salt) be able to obtain a TN as an Accountant. Trying to obtain an H1B right now is pointless since the fiscal year is now April 2012 and you would not be able to begin work until Oct 1, 2012 anyway..Unless this is what you already had in mind.

Hopefully our regulars will be able to provide more concrete advice based on what you have provided.. Hope this helps:-)

I really appreciate the information and advice you have given me. I have been applying for the last three months, maybe I'll just have to be more patient. Thanks again!
