Include your U.S. citizenship or green card status on your resume!

Please make sure to include your work authorization status on your resume — it can really boost your chances of landing an interview!

As a hiring manager, I want to focus on qualified candidates. When I see clear information about your work authorization, it helps me quickly determine if you're eligible to work here without unnecessary paperwork.

Dealing with immigration paperwork is really frustrating, and I’d prefer to avoid the hassle and uncertainty that comes with it. 

Additionally, many recent job postings are for LCA or PERM, which essentially means employers are advertising the position to prove that no American or green card holder is available, ensuring that only H-1B visa holders can fill the role. Including your work authorization status on your resume or application might improve your chances of qualifying for these types of jobs.
