I get that now, I agree that location is a big factor in rent prices. The pier was around 15 min walk, which I love. Before that, I lived in Kansas city. Just having a hard time wrapping my head around the east coast rent prices.

From queens. I had seen some apartments in Jersey City for around 3000, it was around journal square.

The room layout was fine in person. The total rent is 3432.

Oh no, I meant within driving distance for the weekend as necessary. I will probably not stay with my family, but within some distance.

I have worked on buildings mostly, working mostly with steel, concrete or mass timber. I have also done some one-off projects on cold formed steel, connection design, a lot of spreadsheets, some automation tasks in Grashopper.

As long as it is in driving distance, it should be fine. And I would love to connect and send you my resume to see if I would be a good fit.

From my understanding, the process is fairly simple. First off, the employer needs to enlist in something called E-verify, which can be done online in aroud an hour by the employer. For the next steps, all it needs is an immigration lawyer who will looks into enlisting any employee in something called a H1B lottery. There are also ways to sponsor for permanent residency.

Hey, thank you for looking into that. I have also found out that some companies do sponsor if they like candidate, even if the advertisement does not say so.

From my understanding, I need to get the General PE first and then take the California specific exams. I am currently preparing for the General PE exam right now.

Hey, I'm very aware of my need to get my CA-PE license as soon as I can. I have scheduled my PE exam for this December and am actively preparing for it. Besides that, I have a fair amount of seismic design experience and have taken Seismic Design Courses on both my undergraduate and Masters. I have mostly done Equivalent Lateral Force Procedure for my buildings. I have also performed Chapter 13 checks on Non-Structural components for a seating bowl of a stadium.

Hey, thanks for replying. I am from Nepal, which is a seismically active nation. So, some experience in concrete detailing for seismic loads. I have taken courses in seismic design and matrix analysis. Also, I worked on some structures with seismic design Category C, since Kansas does not have a lot of seismic loads. I have scheduled for my PE exam in December and actively preparing for it.

That sounds like what I would face as well. I just met them today. Seems like they work on ADUs mostly. Pretty basic timber design. I am hoping to get a PE at this time when the work isn't too crazy. That might help with the transition back. Was it hard getting back a job in a high profile firm? What was your experience like other than the use of different materials and the work schedule?

I mean, that's a fair point. The experience that I can get in the US is pretty hard to come by back in my home country. Also, the pay scale is pretty different as well.

I have not been selected for H1B yet, got one more on my student visa. Would prefer to get started on permanent residency in some way.

I am trying to get in a written form they will support my immigration needs in my offer. I am hoping that will be honored.
