Given that the H1B must be sponsored by an employer, how are you supposed to find one if you shouldn't "solicit", go to interviews, meet people ? Is this a cat

Given that the H1B must be sponsored by an employer, how are you supposed to find one if you shouldn't "solicit", go to interviews, meet people ?
Is this a catch-22 ? Nobody ever got legally an H1B ?
- galadriel 15y agoOne way would be to that the companies interview you in your countries. This usually happens with on-campus recruitment. Other way is that you are on some other visa (other than B-1), that does allows you to solicit, give interviews, etc. For example at the end of F-1 study visa, you can go around and shop for some time to get a job, and the company will then sponsor for your H1B.
- GuiA 15y agoActually, at the end of an F1 visa, provided that you got a degree, you can work under OPT for 12 months, with a possible 17 months extension if you're in STEM. At the end of those (12+17) months you can seek H1B.
