Zikten posted... You don't get made a citizen when you marry an American?I mean not automatically. You apply for your green card which is a giant stack of paperwork and documents and pictures you have to gather. Then after 3 years of marriage you can apply for citizenship but its another giant stack of paperwork and such. Plus interviews, biometrics and tests. We got lazy with applying for it because its so much work and we didnt want to spend thousands on an immigration lawyer. SiO4 posted...

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Yup I was an engineer before and its very easy to secure a TN visa but its a non immigration type of visa so you either have to marry a citizen (which is what I did) or apply for an H1B then get a green card from there.

Oh you were born in Canada. I did not realize that. What part of Canada? Also, I don't know what a TN Visa is....but I still don't have an enhanced license. I've never been to Canada, but I've been through at least three border crossings. ~That was just NY and USA being extra. I love my Canadian neighbors...but their air can fuck off right now.

PiOverlord posted... Good luck Cleo!Thank you! [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I was an EE but honestly it was a bad experience for me. For one I was never really all that passionate about it but I was pushed by my parents who are middle eastern and wanted at least one engineer kid to brag about to people. I was good at math and physics so I was chosen as tribute and basically forced into it. Then I hated it but also experienced so much sexism and discrimination that it made me hate it even more. I thought of going the PM route or sales engineer but ended up sort of just trying recruiting engineers instead and that clicked for me and been doing it ever since. Its fun because I can follow what my technical candidates are saying and know exactly how to match them to the right role and my hiring managers love working with me for that reason. I cant code so I wont pretend I can sniff that out but I know enough to know if a candidate is bullshitting about their technical depth which I will let the interviewers know so they can dig deeper on tech screens. And Im usually proven right. ... Copied to Clipboard!

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Yeah thats one thing I like about my job. I get to advocate for my candidates. Especially when theyre minorities. Ive worked with teams on making sure their interview panel wasnt all white dudes and that the interview process is the same for everyone. Ive given interview trainings as well on how to minimize unconscious bias. Ive fought for some candidates that aced the interview but for whatever reason we were going to turn them down. Ive given candidates offers over what they asked for because they were clearly underpaid, especially minorities and women. I feel like I can make more of a difference on this side of the house. ...
