New graduate roles

Searching as a new grad is the same search: the 2,282 roles above are the entry-level and junior openings, which is where graduate hiring sits. Internships and co-ops are listed separately on the CPT page, since those suit students who have not finished yet.

Common questions

Are these jobs open to students on OPT?

OPT is your own work authorisation, so you do not need an employer to sponsor anything to start. What matters is whether they will file an H-1B later, which is the point of every employer on this list. These 2,282 roles are the entry-level and junior openings, the band new graduates are usually hired into.

Which companies hire the most international graduates?

Right now Bank of America, ByteDance and HDR have the most entry-level openings here. Each company page shows how many H-1B petitions that employer has actually filed, from Department of Labor records, so you can tell a real sponsor from one that merely says it is open to it.

Does this cover STEM OPT as well?

The roles are the same; the requirement is different. A STEM OPT extension needs an employer enrolled in E-Verify who will sign your Form I-983, so ask about E-Verify enrolment before you accept. The OPT guide walks through the timing and the paperwork.

Where are most of these roles?

San Jose, CA, New York, NY and Seattle, WA hold the biggest share today, and 148 of the 2,282 are remote. Each city has its own page if you want to search one place at a time.

What fields are hiring?

Software Engineering, Finance / Consulting / Business Operations and Engineering (ECE, Mechanical, Civil) lead the entry-level listings at the moment. You can narrow to a single field from the browse page.
