About

As an HR Manager at AppyVisaJobs.com, my core focus is on recruitment for H-1B, OPT, STEM OPT, and CPT roles, helping international students & global candidates navigate the complex U.S. job market to secure career opportunities aligned with their skills and immigration status. I specialize in connecting international talent with U.S. employers offering visa sponsorship. I lead initiatives that bridge the gap between international job seekers and U.S. companies willing to sponsor work visas. From strategic employer outreach and talent sourcing to compliance support and candidate coaching, my goal is to create a smoother, faster, and more transparent hiring process for all parties involved. With a strong understanding of immigration policies and industry hiring trends, I’m passionate about making global mobility possible through employment. I’m proud to be part of a mission-driven platform that empowers skilled professionals from around the world to build their careers in the United States.
