Check eligibility before prioritizing a company
Match the exact role, U.S. work location, degree, graduation window, return-to-school condition and relevant experience. A higher brand fit does not cure a failed requirement.
Keep three decisions separate: whether the candidate has usable present work authorization; whether the employer will provide the required assistance for this role; and whether a future full-time role could offer immigration support. Unknown remains unknown.
A company-level FAQ can clarify an ambiguous program term, but does not replace a more specific JD restriction. Do not infer citizenship-only hiring from permanent authorization or U.S. Person wording.
