Engineers have been the primary beneficiaries of the H1B Sponsorships in the last few years, making it difficult to identify the H1B sponsorship opportunities for business profiles.
So, we examined the US Department of Labor data* looking for the sponsors of business profiles, such as MBAs and other Masters, and we are happy to publish the first report on the
2017 H1B Sponsorship for Business Profiles.
Take a look, let us know what you think, share with colleagues, and reach out in case we can help.

About the H1B
What is the H1B and why is it so important?
The H1B is the primary work permit for international talents to start working and living in the United
States. It follows a lottery system that attributes every April 85,000 visas to sponsored applicants
As it is the employers who must file the application, it is hence important for you to know which are the
ones that have sponsored international business talent in the past, as these are also the most likely to
sponsor again in the future
Note that you can find all the necessary information, provided by our partner Fragomen, in our
International section
Our H1B Search Engine
Within our International section, one can search and filter 52,089 H1B sponsorships for business
profiles by state, functional area, job title and employer name
For each employer, one gets a big picture of the volume, the locations, and the typical sponsored roles
(job title, job area, and salary)
