Introduction:
A new platform called F1 Hire has been launched to help international students in the US find employment opportunities. The platform was launched on August 10, 2023. The platform is available in the US but plans to expand to Canada, Europe, Australia, and the Middle East.
A browser extension seamlessly connects with five prominent job boards: LinkedIn, Indeed, HandShake, Glassdoor, and Google Jobs. Additionally, the platform offers valuable insights, including details about company visa sponsorships, E-verify participation status, and the H-1B history of various companies.
The platform was created to help international students overcome the challenges of finding a job in the US. It aims to make the job search process more straightforward by providing real-time, crucial information for job seekers.
“We believe that our commitment to providing real-time, crucial information for job seekers will make securing a job more straightforward,” said Andrew Chen, founder and CEO of F1 Hire. “And with our planned expansion, we aim to cater to the global job market.”
The platform has already been a “game changer” for international students at Central Michigan University, according to the director of the university’s Career Development Center. It is expected to have a positive impact on international students across the US and around the world.
