As a Canadian (Tdot).. I know it can be relatively difficult to get a job down here in SF. I was lucky enough to go to a US school which gets me OPT for a year.

As a Canadian (Tdot).. I know it can be relatively difficult to get a job down here in SF. I was lucky enough to go to a US school which gets me OPT for a year. Then I can issue myself a TN-1 or H1B.
For Canadians.. try to get a TN-1!
- mcpherrinm 15y agoI'm a Canadian who has worked in the US a number of times as an intern. J-1 visas were easy to get for me through my University career office and employer working together.
- iqster 15y agoAh neat! Do you know if this works for undergrads? And if the employer is a startup, does that add to the complexity? P.S. This isn't for me, but for an undergrad I mentor.
- mcpherrinm 15y agoI know plenty of bay-area startups hire undergraduate interns from the University of Waterloo (where I am). I don't see it being a problem, though it's a little costly. You should contact a company like Cultural Vistas (http://www.culturalvistas.org/ http://www.culturalvistas.org/) who can get you the J-1 visa.
