SUMMARY:IAP: What Every International Student and Trainee Should Know about U.S. Employment\, with Dan Beaudry
DESCRIPTION:Dan Beaudry\, former head of campus recruiting at Monster.com\, shares the potent job search system used by many international students and trainees to find U.S. employment. H-1B’s are won in ways you likely don’t expect. What you’ll discover in this presentation may surprise you: • Learn how to secure H-1B sponsorship at companies that have a policy against sponsoring H-1B visas. \n\n\n\n • Learn why 80 percent of open jobs are never advertised – and how to find them before anyone else.  \n\n\n\n• Learn why human resources is often an obstacle instead of a conduit to finding a U.S. job-and how to bypass it. \n\n\n\n • Learn why submitting résumés online is not an effective use of your time-and how you can better invest that time.  \n\n\n\nFind more information about Dan Beaudry and his book\, “The International Student’s Guide to Finding a Job in the United States”\, at www.powerties.netThis presentation is open to MIT undergraduates\, graduate students\, postdocs\, and alumni. *Note that at the request of the speaker\, this session will not be recorded.  \n\n\n\nThis event is hosted by Career Advising & Professional Development (CAPD)\, and the International Students Office (ISO).
