I live in Canada and I'm entertaining the idea of moving to the states. What are some good jobs w/o experience that I can get in order to live and work down there? Also most likely moving to Houston so I can watch my Rockets live brah.
Hm...sounds legit. I have no experience in IT outside of installing my own PC though. Do you have a hookup? haha And would I be shat on if I lived in Austin? I'd only be shat on if it was Dallas right?
If there is any place in America you can stumble into being wealthy or comfortable it is Texas; and Houston especially. Houston gets grief over some things but there is no place else that offers as much opportunity. I have lived and done business all over the country and even in Western Europe and if you can’t hack it in Houston; you can’t hack it anywhere.
Try strip clubs. I've hired many of women without experience, but they did show some performance at a high-level.
I wouldn't recommend it. Move to Charlotte, Pittsburgh or Atlanta. Buy NBA League Pass to watch the Rockets.
Canada is a little different. We've hired a few people on TN status temporarily while we eventually move them over to H1-B. Canadians with job offers can get into the US by requesting TN status instead of going through the H1-B process. With TN, the employer isn't sponsoring. They give you the offer but you can get work authorization directly from the government. TN status is a temporary work permit that can be offered to Canadians and Mexicans as part of NAFTA. Americans can also gain TN status to work in Canada but Canada has a much easier immigration process so if you want to move to Canada, you're better off getting a more permanent work authorization rather than TN.
Thanks for those details @geeimsobored . So TN means Treaty Nafta visa, did not know. Still though, the work must be found and the offer must be given to the potential employee I am assuming.
Yes, you do need a job offer but the employer doesn't have the burden of sponsorship so your odds are much better. And there's no quota on TN visas. You just have to be a job/education category specified in NAFTA and you're set. The easiest thing to do is to find a contract position somewhere. This is very common in IT type work. It makes it really easy as contracts have end dates so the immigration agent that interviews you can clearly see that the work is temporary in nature.
I live near Pittsburgh. 53 inches of snow in a day and a half with another foot on the way in the next day. Nah, don't move to Pittsburgh if you're trying to escape the cold.
