Application Tips for foreigners in the US If you belong to some other country and plan to get a job in the USA and if you keep getting disappointed, you might not be searching for jobs “properly”. Before applying for a job, you need to figure out how you would afford to move there or get a work visa. This is because you need to decide which jobs to apply for, based on your answer to these questions. If you need financial support from the company to move out and keep applying for all jobs related to your career, you might not get a job. This is because only about 5% of companies sponsor the candidate’s work visa, and even fewer companies provide any other financial support. The most important advice to follow when looking for a job in the USA is that you need to be ready to mold according to the company. You may not like what a company is offering, and you are free to negotiate. However, you should also be ready to compromise if the need is so. What job to apply for? Before looking for a job, you should check the career prospects of the sector you choose to work in. Only start planning out your life there if you find scope and opportunities for the career of your choice there. Before you even think of taking chances and adjusting, remember that you would be moving to a foreign country without any financial backing. This is sure to put things back into perspective for you. Once you have figured this out, it is time to look at the different visas available. You will need this list to look for the right job opportunities. When you search for job opportunities, you can focus on jobs that are ready to sponsor your visa. A few factors that affect the kind of visa you would need are:

Graduation: It is easier for candidates with more than five years of experience or an upper-secondary diploma to get a visa. Career: It depends on the requirements of the company you are currently working for. The visa will be different if your company wants to transfer you to the US. Skills: The visa you will get also depends on your area of expertise and the industry you want to work in. Duration: The validity of each type of visa is different. The duration of your stay also affects the type of visa. • • • • • You should consider three main factors before applying for any job: • Can the company sponsor hire you with the appropriate visa? • Does the job profile match your career path and goals? • Does the job profile and the company match at least 60% of your motivation and skills?

However, you can tweak your job search and application process to increase the chances of your selection. As a native of the state, all you have to do is emphasize your skill-set and justify who you should be hired. For this purpose, you need to refine and modify your job search process: • You can narrow down your job search based on which job is popular in a particular area. For example, when we consider Barstow jobs, healthcare and blue-collar jobs are most popular. • Once you are aware of the chances of you getting a job in that area, you can move on to finding the right companies. For this, you should look at the companies offering jobs and see if the work environment matches your expectations and if the job role is something you can handle. • Following this, you should check the company’s requirements for the job role. Make a list of how many of the requirements you can satisfy, and depending on the number of skills you have, try to highlight your skills in your resume. • Finally, you should look at the perks that the company offers and if the salary provided matches with the market value for your skills in the field. Conclusion Competition for jobs in the USA is higher than in any other country. This puts tremendous pressure on the candidates looking for a job. So, if you are looking for jobs in Barstow, follow the steps mentioned above to increase the chances of your selection. No dream is far away if you plan correctly.
