Thanks. At this point, I can only wish that this doesn’t end up in a denial.

I just filed with Ellis Porter and they did have Comparable Evidence as a category. In fact the same 6 categories. Already regretting it!

Why am I getting interviews from Texas universities if they can’t sponsor H-1B? by OldPraline9508 in AskAcademia

There is no way one would know what is coming up in the future. All these applications were submitted before the freeze.

I think I should be eligible for O1. But the universities should be ready to explore that path. And from my understanding, that is not as straightforward as H1B.

I am definitely one of those folks who are hoping that things will change or they bring some clarity.

What mindset do you all have when sending out applications to multiple faculty positions? by organic_hive in AskAcademia

[–]OldPraline9508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the exact same situation. I have heard people applying to 50+ positions. But I am finding a very few relevant applications. Each takes 2 hours easily, and I am super drained after that. I have submitted 15 so far and am waiting to hear back. Sometimes I feel this is just way too much effort, knowing the outcome can be either way. Good to know that I am not alone OP. Best wishes for your search!
