H1B Visa Employers Database                      

Career Services encourages International Students to take advantage of h1visajobs.com. This site has a series of online databases that contain information on thousands of American firms, all over the United States, in all disciplines that have actually offered H-1B jobs to international professionals. All information is gathered using the federal government’s statistics.
 

      Understanding the H1B database:

• This is not a list of available jobs.  These databases contain listings of employers who have recently filed the appropriate paperwork to sponsor an international person for an H1B visa.  This information will help you determine which employers may be willing to sponsor a visa holder. Please note: There is no guarantee that these employers have available jobs, or that the employer will sponsor you.
