Do PE firms and smaller investment banks sponsor visas?
I am a foreign national currently on H-1B status (working as a consultant at MBB who graciously sponsor visas). I am thinking about making a transition to finance next year (probably into PE, although I am also considering investment banking surprise surprise). I know the big banks definitely sponsor visas, but I am not sure about the big PE firms (KKR,TPG) and independent advisory banks (Evercore, Lazard etc.). Does anyone have any information on this? Since I am already on H-1B status, I am hoping that the firm in question won't have to go through a particularly expensive/traumatic application process. However, a change of employer application IS filed as a new Visa application (cap exempt though) so if the firm as a matter of policy does not sponsor visas then I'll be out of look.
Would appreciate any help. Thanks!
I think only few firms have strict policies regarding sponsoring the working Visa; for most firms, if they like you, they don't mind spending couple thousands dollars on you for the process.
OK do you know for sure about the larger PE funds? The big banks all have immigration attorneys to navigate the Visa process, but I am guessing the PE firms don't, hence I wasn't sure if they did sponsor visas
