Applying to U.S. employment opportunities
If you have U.S. citizenship or a U.S. GREEN Card you do not require any further employer authorization to be employed in the United States.
All other nationalities must obtain employment authorization to be eligible to work in the United States.
A citizen of a foreign country who seeks to enter the United States generally must first obtain a U.S. visa, which is placed in the traveler’s passport, a travel document issued by the traveler’s country of citizenship. See details online.
See the U.S. Embassy & Consulates in Canada for detailed information for people interested in traveling to the United States.
There are U.S. based job search resources. Checkout Jumpstart for U.S.-based opportunities in tech.
