How to relocate to SF

Moving with partner to the US as a European national, would appreciate advice on how recruiting works in Sun Francisco ie key recruiters, visas and green cards, openness to cold messaging etc - looking for VC or other investing roles but would also consider CD/IB. Background in IB,MF and Tech CD.
