    A friend of mine is thinking of trying to find a job in New York, but is finding it hard to find decent agencies.
    Can anyone recommend any job agencies?
    Thanks

    Is your friend an American Citizen?

    If not he/she can forget about getting a job there.

    Well that depends, is she eligible for a one year visa?

    She needs to either have a degree (graduated within last 12 months) or be a full time student in a degree course. If she is, then when she gets to America she has to work in a field related to her degree.

    From USIT.
    Very Important POST Departure Information
    It is essential that prior to applying and paying for the programme, that you understand the steps and process you must comply with once in the US which you will find on the application form (especially the terms and conditions). Included are the following:

    The position you find once you have arrived in the US must be related to your field of study. (We do not know how liberal an interpretation of your field of study will be acceptable just yet!)
    Your US Employer will be required to complete a Form DS-7002
    This form must be submitted to CIEE, your US Sponsoring organisation, for vetting and approval before you will be granted authorisation to commence your work placement.
    As with all US work visas, you will also be required to update SEVIS (the Student Exchange Visitor Information System) with your permanent address in the US and confirmation of commencement of job search, within 10 days of arrival.
    Please note, CIEE are obliged to do checks with your host company every 60 days to ensure that the position you are placed in is offering you a training that is related to your field of study.
