Workers come to find jobs in the U.S. to improve their skills, their education level, and to build a new life. Working abroad in the U.S. is also a wonderful way for students to spend a summer abroad or spend a gap year. There are ample opportunities for part-time or seasonal jobs in the United States, and working in the U.S. gives individuals time to explore the country, while supplementing travel expenses and gaining international work experience.

How to Get a Job in the US as a Foreigner

In order to get a job in the US as a foreigner, you will need to present yourself in the best way possible. The US job landscape is competitive and requires enthusiasm, dedication, and a polished resume. The following tips should help you prepare for your job search.

How to Apply for a Job in the US

If you have set your eyes on the US job market, begin your search by looking into whether your field is in demand. Knowing your prospects might determine how you approach your job hunt and hint at which state can offer you the best opportunities.

Then, try researching some possible employers. If an enterprise grabs your attention but has no current job openings for a person with your skills, try approaching them by emailing a letter of inquiry. In the letter, express your interest in the company, attach your resume, and request for a possibility of further contact. While this method does not always yield positive outcomes, being proactive can sometimes pay off.

Keep an eye on online job postings as well. See what social media sites (Facebook, LinkedIn, or InterNations), as well as popular job boards (Indeed, CareerBuilder, Glassdoor, or ZipRecruiter), are offering. The US Department of Labor also has a search engine that allows you to browse through national job postings, so it could be a good place to start.

Another tip that will help you stay on top of your job search is keeping yourself digitally visible. Upload your resume to job sites and stay active on job-related social media platforms. There is also a possibility to find great job opportunities on trade journals, industry blogs, or association websites. Recruiting and staffing companies are also an option.

Networking Tips

Networking can lead you to discover new opportunities that may not be advertised in official job postings. If you are looking for an opportunity to get a job in the US, consider:

  • Looking through your contacts, identifying who might help you (family members, acquaintances, or former colleagues or course mates), and contacting them.
  • Attending networking events, career fairs, or looking into experience or career exchange opportunities.
  • Listening to others wherever you go – you never know when an opportunity may come up.

If you are attending events dress appropriately and have business cards to hand out.

Whether communicating online or in person at an event, instead of asking for a job, ask for suggestions for who might help you with your career and how to expand your network.

CV and Cover Letter Tips

It is important to note that in the US, CV refers to an in-depth list of achievements that is mostly used in academia. The document you use to apply for jobs is referred to as a “resume”.

The standard rules of an American-style resume are:

  • You should list your work experience in chronological order.
  • You should include your address, email, and phone number.
  • You should not include your picture, marital status, or age.
  • The resume should fit into one (preferably) or a maximum of two pages.

When it comes to cover letters, you should include it with every application, unless the job ad specifically asks you not to.

  • Start the letter by addressing the person who is reading your cover letter and try to be personal if you can. Avoid phrases like “to whom it may concern” and “dear sir/madam.”
  • In the introduction, refer to the position you are applying to, how you found the job, and express your interest in the position.
  • Highlight your achievements and tell your potential employer why you are suitable for the job in the main body of the letter.
  • Thank the reader for their attention and consideration in the closing paragraph and inform them on how you plan to follow-up.

Another important thing when applying for a job in the US is to indicate what type of visa you have or wish to get and mention that you will need sponsorship. You can do so in your resume or cover letter.

Other tips:

  • Make your resume is easy to read by using bullet points and leaving enough white space.
  • Be consistent with bolding and spacing, and avoid underlining and using multiple fonts.
  • Tailoring your resume to the employer might help you achieve better results.
  • For a more professional look, use the same layout for both your resume and cover letter.

Interview Tips

Depending on whether you are already living in the US or not, you may be interviewed online or in person. But no matter how the interview is conducted, make sure to come prepared.

  • Be punctual and dress accordingly.
  • Be honest, answer directly, and maintain eye contact.
  • Smile, keep a sense of humor but stay professional.
  • Turn off your mobile phone or set it to airplane/do not disturb mode.
  • If your interview is conducted online, make sure you and your surroundings look presentable and your internet connection is good. When scheduling the interview, keep in mind differences in time zones.
  • If your interview is in person, bring your resume with you and, if specified by your potential employer, your references and portfolio.

Best Way to Get a Job in the US as a Foreigner

While the US has quite a few job opportunities for both natives and foreigners, the most secure way to get a job is to be transferred there. This is because your employer needs to sponsor your visa and transferees usually have that guaranteed.

Not all companies are willing to sponsor foreigner visas. So, whether you are searching for opportunities online or through your network, make your circumstances are clear to your prospective employer as soon as possible.

What are the Requirements for Working in the US?

In most cases, getting permission to work in the US as a foreigner is a part of the visa processing. Depending on which type of visa you need, you will need to get one of the following two:

  • Labor Condition Application – issued for workers on temporary work visas (H-1B(1) and E-3); assures that your wages are comparable to and do not affect the wages of the native employees; can be issued in about a week.
  • Labor Certification – issued for workers with employment-based visas that can lead to getting a Green Card; assures that no qualified native worker could do the job at a comparable wage; can take 6-24 months to be issued.

You also might be working in a field that requires further licensing by the government. The occupations might include (depending on the state):

  • Healthcare specialists (doctors, dentists, nurses, etc.)
  • Legal advisors (lawyers, judges, etc.)
  • Protective service workers (firefighters, law enforcement, etc.)
  • Personal care specialists (hairdressers, skincare specialists, etc.)
  • Other (architects, engineers, real estate brokers, accountants, bus drivers, etc.)

If that is your case, you will need to take further steps to get permission to work in the US. Those can include attending classes of specified training or taking licensure exams.

The licensing standards differ from one state to another, so make sure you meet the requirements of the state you are moving to.

Minimum Wage and Average Salary

The average salary in the US is considered to be one of the highest in the world. According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the highest paid occupations in the US are:

Profession Average Hourly Wage (USD) Average Annual Wage (USD) Doctors 70-130 (depending on the field) 150,000–265,000 (depending on the field) Chief Executives 95 195,000 Airline Pilots N/A 160,000 Managers 55-70 (depending on the field) 120,000–150,000 (depending on the field) Lawyers 68 140,000

If you know the state you are moving to and the field you are going to look for a job in, you can check with the US Department of Labor to see the highest and lowest salary you can expect and how it compares to the rest of the country.

US Minimum Wage

The minimum wage in the US is determined by the US labor law and differs in each state. However, the set federal minimum hourly wage is 7.25 USD.

Areas with the Highest Minimum Hourly Wages District of Colombia 13.25 USD Washington 12.00 USD Massachusetts 12.00 USD New York 11.10 USD California, Arizona, Colorado, Maine 11.00 USD

Some states (New York, Colorado, and California) are planning to gradually raise their minimum wages in the coming years.

There are also states where there is no set minimum wage. Those are:

  • Louisiana
  • Mississippi
  • Alabama
  • South Carolina
  • Tennessee

What is a Good Salary in the US?

Determining whether a salary is good or not depends on plenty of factors: occupation, experience, how many people depend on your salary, etc. Just like in many other countries, it also depends on where you live. Both the state and area are important when considering your wages in the US. Companies in metropolitan areas tend to offer more money to their employees; however, living in a big city usually costs more as well.

A good way of figuring out what salary you should look for when applying for jobs is looking into living wages of the appropriate state. Living wage is the minimum amount of money you need to live off of. For your salary to be considered good enough, your employer should offer you a sum that is higher than the set living wages.

Areas with the Highest Hourly Living Wages (USD)* District of Colombia 18 Hawaii 16 New York 15 Massachusetts 14 New Jersey 14

Areas with the Lowest Hourly Living Wages (USD)* South Dakota 10.5 Arkansas 10.5 Ohio 11 Kentucky 11 West Virginia 11

  • San Jose/Sunnyvale/Santa Clara (CA)

Metropolitan areas with the lowest living wages are:

  • Jackson (MS)
  • Chattanooga (TN-GA)
  • Knoxville (TN)
  • McAllen/Edinburg/Mission (TX)
  • Memphis (TS-MS-AR)

Average Annual Salary in the US

Just like with living wages, average salaries depend on occupation, experience, and where in the US you live. The average overall wage in the US is about 50,000 USD.

Areas with the Highest Annual Median Income per Household (USD)* Maryland 78,000–79,500 New Jersey 75,000–77,000 Massachusetts 74,500–76,000 Alaska 74,000–78,500 District of Colombia 72,000–79,000

  • Software Developer (52 USD hourly/108,000 USD annually)
  • Web Developer (33 USD hourly/68,000 USD annually)

Self-Employment

As mentioned in the visa section of our guide, moving to the US for self-employment can be quite a challenge. There are no strictly entrepreneurial visas available and the government does not run self-employment programs for expats. However, for those who are determined to start their business in the US, there is a way to make it happen.

How to Be Self-Employed in the US

If you wish to be self-employed in the US, in most cases you will need to set up a business. The basic steps to set up a business in the US are:

  • Make a business plan and find the funds.
  • Choose a business structure that is the most suitable for the work you want to do.
  • Register your business with the state.
  • Get your federal and state tax IDs.
  • Apply for licenses and permits (if applicable).

Some states also require you to register your company’s name. The taxes you pay will depend on which business structure you decide to set up. However, whichever one you choose, you will need to get a federal tax ID in most cases. But even before you take that step, you will need to find out if your business complies with the visa requirements.

Below we outline the following structures you can set up, along with the necessary documentation for each, advantages, disadvantages, and the kind of workers it is good for.

Sole Proprietorship

This kind of business is perfect for small businesses and freelancers. There is no specific documentation needed for this kind of set up. It is easy to establish and simple when filing taxes. The disadvantages are:

  • personal financial liability;
  • only run by one person;
  • no real growth opportunity.

Partnership

This set up is great for businesses with multiple owners and professional groups (such as attorneys). You will need a certificate and agreement of partnership (limited or limited availability). It is easy to set up and another advantage is that it is owned by more than one person so there is an equal and shared commitment in the business. The cons are:

  • shared personal financial liability;
  • dependence on the partners;
  • equally split profits.

Limited Liability Company (LLC)

This sort of company is ideal for bigger businesses, medium-to-high risk companies, and people who wish to protect their personal assets. Necessary documentation includes articles of organization and an LLC operating agreement (needs a resident agent, someone who will receive and take care of your company’s legal documentation). Some of the pros of this kind of set up are:

  • limited liability;
  • one or more owners;
  • lower taxes and easy to establish in comparison to corporation;
  • flexibility when splitting profits.

Some of the disadvantages are that if members leave the business, it needs to be dissolved. It is also not as straightforward to set up, there are self-employment taxes, and it is difficult to raise the money for it.

Corporation (B or C Corp or Non-Profit)

Finally, a corporation is perfect for large businesses, medium-to-high risk businesses, and businesses that need to raise funds. It is difficult to set up and will be subject to corporate tax. There are also more books and record keeping. However, some of the advantages of this sort of business include:

  • limited liability;
  • one or more owners;
  • easy to raise money;
  • attractive to employees.

You will require articles of incorporation and bylaws or resolutions (needs a resident agent).

Self-Employment and Social Security Benefits

Just like any other employee in the US, when you are self-employed, you are required to contribute to social security. The size of your payments depends on whether you work for an enterprise or just for yourself (more on that in the tax section of our guide).

You should expect to receive social security benefits after working for at least ten years.

Top Self-Employed Jobs in the US

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the most popular occupations for self-employed workers in the US are:

  • Farmers and other agricultural workers
  • First-line supervisors of retail sales workers
  • Childcare workers
  • Carpenters
  • Construction laborers
  • Hairdressers, hair stylists, and cosmetologists
  • Landscaping and groundskeeping workers
  • Real estate sales agents

The fields with the best prospect for new jobs for self-employed are:

  • Personal care and service (fitness trainers, hair stylists, childcare workers, skincare specialists, recreational workers, etc.)
  • Building and grounds cleaning and maintenance (janitors, building cleaners, grounds maintenance workers, etc.)
  • Construction and extraction (carpenters, roofers, painters, plumbers, electricians, etc.)
