If you're a startup founder or a recruiter looking to hire someone from overseas to be physically working within the United States, things can get a little overwhelming if you're not familiar with the H-1B process. 

 

In today’s episode, we talk about your startup's first H-1B. 

 

This is especially helpful to small companies and early-stage companies as well as companies that have never done this before. 

 

We're diving deeper into the nuances of the H-1B process because there are some special steps required the first time around. 

Whether you're the one doing this process, you're the CEO, or whoever is doing recruiting, everybody needs to be on the same page about the immigration process.

 

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• Forming your company before starting the H-1B process
• Who qualifies as your signatory for the immigration paperwork
• Things to prepare before and during the H-1B process
• An overview of H-1B transfers and extensions
