Course overview
Don't roll the dice on a life altering change.
If you desire to transition from international student to U.S. employee, we are here for you.
Our course is the “extra” support you expected from your university but didn’t get.
Invest in yourself. Start your U.S. career.
01
Graduate, PHD, and MBA international students looking to land a job.
02
Former international students working in the U.S. and stuck in their current level at work or are still on OPT.
03
Motivated under-graduate students who want to build their network early to prepare for a successful U.S. career.
Quickly get companies to respond to your applications
We will cover the hiring funnel and why the majority of online applications go nowhere. We'll discuss how recruiters work with the hiring team, how they leverage LinkedIn, and how you can find anyone from the hiring team (plus what to say when you reach out) to maximize responses
Learn business operating models and why they matter for your job search
Stop sounding canned and unprepared in interviews. We will enable you to distill a company's business model, and use that to better target your job search and impress recruiters and hiring managers in interviews
Tailor your approach with recruiters and hiring managers
Recruiters have access to many open roles, but are bombarded with connection requests and can only get you past the first door. Learn how to approach them, to get responses, and how to make them your ally in the interview process. Impress hiring managers to get offers
Demystify how top companies grade your interview responses, and how to ace them
You will practice how to answer common networking and interview questions, and get personalized feedback on your English, content depth, speech patterns, and likability. We will go deep and personal in these exercises to ensure you know exactly where and how to improve
