I Need more info on this, I am graduating this week, business major . Is there any way to get sponsorship ?

There is a wave of H1 visa coming up in April 2007.

The start-up company below is looking for Engineers: Electronic, Aerospace, Mechanical, and other related engineers to launch a project. If project available, the company might be able to sponsor a few qualified people.

Just like Indian Company, initially, there will be a training, and training will be done via telephone and online. If interested contact them.

Local , please tell us about about the consultancy? how much do they pay? how long is the training ? and do you get paid during the training or do you have to pay? also, do you need to be in Opt? or F1 status can also apply?
can basic computer skill people like IS major can do it or you need to be a hardcore programmer etc... please do tell us..

local kukhura do u want to share with us some stuff like

was it hard to find a place to stay when u joined your first project. did u just find a 1 bedroom apartment and stay there .. did u buy a car.. i am guessing u had to relocate... am i rite ? do u get your paychecks on time from the consulting co ?

well sorry for the late reply.

well the company first trains you. it basically trains either for BA, Dotnet , J2ee or Pl/SQL
for the first 6 months they pay 50 k and then 55 k. free sponsership.
if you dont have place to stay they provide you guest house too.

i did the same thing. i graduate last december and i stayed in the guest house for 4 month.
if you want more info about the company write your phone no.here .
i will give you call as soon as i get your no.

bye bye now

There is a consulting company in dallas that I know of. They are Veritis Grp. I know lots of Nepalese involved with the company. The number to call: 972-753-0313 (O); 214-403-7984 (C); ask for Lina, as she is Nepali working there and probably would be easier to relate your issues to.

Cheers,
haami

VERITIS GRP == BE CAREFUL... THEY ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM... I KNOW A LOTS OF PPL THAT WANT TO TRANSFER H1B BUT CANNOT BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL CAUGHT UP IN ONE THING OR THE EITHER...

I THINK HAAMI IS HERSELF LINE GIVING OUT THE NUMBERS LET ME TELL YOU SOME THING REAL STRAIGHT I WENT TO VERITIS GROUP TO TALK ABOUT SPONSORSHIP AS WELL I HAD MY OWN JOB SET UP... I GOT AN OFFER FOR $65 /HOUR BUT YOU VERITIS WAS WILLING TO PAY ME 55 K THAT IS 26 /HOUR.. LOOK AT ALL THEY ARE MAKING..

I WENT TO MY CURRENT COMPANY AND I AM GET 80-20 THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPANIES THAT WILL GIVE YOU TRAINING BUT THE IMPORTANT THING IS YOUR PAY... MY GUYS THEY DO NOT GET PAID EVEN FOR THE HOURS THEY WORK 40 STRAIGHT THAT IS NOT FAIR...

P.S. IF YOUR CONTRACT COLLAPSES THEY WILL NOT PAY YOU FOR THAT.. I KNOW A GUY THAT DID NOT GET PAID FOR 3 WEEKS... JUST THINK ABOUT IT...

MY BEST ADVICE IS APPLY FOR 2 H1B FROM 2 DIFF COMPANIES SO THAT YOU WILL BE ON THE SAFE SIDE.. EVERY ONE WILL DO H1B FOR FREE IF YOU HAVE OPT...

GOOD LUCK

well kailadai, personally, I don't care what Veritis do or have done. I am not "her" who you think I am -- not a good thing to assume people's identity. I was just giving out information that I had.

I got trained from Veritis. I have to acknowledge that it was a rough road for me in the beginning, but I had all the skills that I needed from the company which helped me get into a great financial company.

Maaila's friend might be in a different situation than yours. All Nepalese brothers/sisters cannot right away start asking for 80/20 -- they got to build their skills first. I have come across lots of Nepalese folks out from college and making $6/hr in gas station wasting their time not knowing the opportunities out there.

We are here to help out each other but not to criticize or assume stuffs.

Peace!
haami

what is the websit of that consulatancy company?
can you send me the link.

Hello Local

what is the website of that conultancy company that you have taken tranning.

HAAMI,

DO NOT GET EXICITED ABOUT MY COMMENTS... YOU MIGHT BE IN A DIFFERENT SITUATION... I AM TALKING ABOUT ALL THE NEPS THAT I HAVE MET THAT WORKED FOR VERITIS...

I KNOW A COUPLE OF THEM DID ALSO TRANSFER TOO... IF YOU ARE SO WELL SET WITH VERITIS CAN YOU TELL ME HOW MUCH DID YOU START WITH BECAUSE AS I MENTIONED I HAD MY OWN JOB SEARCHED AND EVERYTHING BUT STILL THEY DID NOT WANT ME TO GET THE 80-20 RATIO..

IF VERITIS IS NOT TRAINING ME NOR SPENDING A DIME IN ME WHY IS IT HARD TO GO FOR A DECENT OFFER...

MY COMPANY GIVES ME 80-20 I WILL GIVE THE NAME OF MY COMPANY THEY ARE PRETTY GOOD.. VERITIS MIGHT BE GOOD BUT MY EXPERIENCE AS WELL AS SOME PPL THAT I HAVE HEARD ARE HAVING BAD EXPERIENCES....

TO GIVE YOU A ROUND NUMBER I HAVE TALKED TO ATLEAST 15 NEPS WORKING FOR VERITIS THAT ARE NOT HAPPY AT ALL.... GUYS NOT IN ONE FIELD BUT ALL J2EE, SQL, ORACLE, UNIX, QA, COGNOS ALL DIFFERENT GUYS HAVE THE SAME THING NOT PAYING GOOD...

YOU TALK ABOUT $6/HR GAS STATION MOST OF THE GUYS IN TX COME FROM THAT BACK GROUND MAY BE YOU CAME FROM THE SAME BACK GROUND AS WELL... IF VERITIS IS GETTING 100 K A YEAR FOR THE SAME CONSULTANT WHY NOT PAY THEM SOMEWHERE CLOSE TO 70 K - 80 K.. VERITIS WILL GET 20 K A YEAR WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT... SO THAT BOTH OF YOU GUYS WILL BE HAPPY YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN...

HAAMI I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT YOU ARE A NEPALI BUT WHY IS IT THAT YOU ARE SUPPORTING THESE BLUDDY DHOTIS... SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT...

PEACE

can f1 students doing masters apply for H1bs also, or do they only hire opts??

I thik so.

coz i know one of my fren doin masters join this Indian company and now he is makin money instead of goin to University

Is there any consulting company for business major such as Accounting or Finance?

truely , thanks Local :)

Local, can you also please provide a phone number or some contact information of the dept or a person that we should talk in that company. Please post it here or email me at : cortaidus@yahoo.com

thanks a lot again..

Business, Finance, enginering, no matter what is yr background if you r in OPT, go for these comapnies, it is the hot market for QA,BA to enter. JUst do some homeworks before joining. They are basically spread all over major cities. Choose one that is close to u and visit them personally. Ask questions like.....how many days in week u will get training? how long is their experience? how long they has been in the market? do they ve full time trainer or is it only in weekends?.........etc....

Some of these CO. run in one small office without proper classrooms and labs to practice. Nothing wrong but why choose rotten apple if u can choose guud apples.

g luck to u all..........make yr future bright..........
