Does anyone know of anyone who was sponsored for a green card immediately post getting hired at the analyst level? I'd become a second year analyst in June but my firm isn't sponsoring. The H-1B cap for the year is already at max capacity and my student visa expires in August. However, My country is small and the green card process is relatively smooth should a firm sign the papers. Is it worth it to try and go through lateral recruiting at this point? If so, what firms would be most likely to sponsor in this case?

Top BB banks do not sponsor green card application until you are a VP. What they do is moving you to another region and then call you back after another year with a L-1 visa.
From my experience, BBs do sponsor MBA associates after 1-2 years
Which BB, may I ask?
CS, BarCap and UBS were sponsoring MBA grads and 2nd year Associates until 2018.. not sure if they still are.
Ok, let me clarify then. JPM does not.
Do you know if MS and JPM sponsor green card for analysts with H1B?
Does JPM not sponsor for H1B??
Can confirm that JPM SF does in fact sponsor. Taiwanese friend of mine started his LC Perm process after his 2nd year as Associate and got his green card right before being promoted to VP. This was 2018, so I don't think much would have changed policy-wise.
So how long did it take overall?
