Manage episode 355325310 series 2794947
In this week’s Immigration Law for Tech Startups podcast, I’m joined by Lynda Hagerty, our Chief Legal Officer for Excellence at Alcorn Immigration. We talk all about the H-1B lottery and we'll be covering everything you need to know to tackle the H-1B lottery in 2023. If you have not started already, your preparation begins now!
Whether you're hearing about it for the first time, you're new to HR and it's your first time for your company or you're just trying to figure out what's next, the H-1B is an opportunity for a company to sponsor a foreign national employee for a professional position and get work authorization. The trick with the H-1B is the first time you secure it, you have to go through this whole lottery process, which only has a very small window. If you think this is your next step, listen in to know more about what it entails to apply for one.
