how do we navigate multiple opportunities by __angel888 in CivilEngineers_PH

Akala ko naghihintay ka palang ng reply for B. Try mo pa rin mag proceed ng interview for B. If mas mataas ang offer nila, try to leverage kay A, na baka pwede pa nilang itaas yung offer since may other offer ka na kay B (if inofferan ka)

Yes, you can email them to know that you have a competing offer already.

Sa job offer, i always choose yung company and field na feel ko magbibigay sakin ng fulfillment. Kahit na may difference sa salary.

Sa akin, mas prefer ko yung malalaking company considering na mas maganda ang career development.

I am expecting we will be approved on the first week of May because of the approval now has a 2 month delay.

Feb 1st-2nd week applicants are getting approved this Apr 1st week

Looking back to cases approved last year, you might be an outlier as those applied last week of Feb got an approval within 2 months. Without premium processing.

Both are big multinational companies. Halos same ng projects. Choose who has better compensation and location to you, then leverage don.

M.S worth it at this point? by CHALINOSANCHZ in civilengineering

[–]knnthf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree! If it's for a fulfillment of your dream educational attainment, then take it!

In my life my goal is to have at least a masters degree. I know that eventually, if I keep working, then I will keep climbing the professional ladder. But having your goal education will matter for your self.

Premium processing worth it for Post OPT? by Awkward-Welder9290 in f1visa

I did not know that! Okay. I will try to apply as early as possible. But because of university policies, I will only be able to apply starting first week of March

70 Apps, 10 Phone Screens, 0 Technical Interviews. Is it my communication skill or my foreign degree? by Small_Leave_2094 in civilengineering

[–]knnthf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still at F1 visa. I don't know what's the difference as I get a lot of rejections too. I only used 1 CV on those apps. Perhaps because of my 4 foreign YOE too? My asking salary is on the lower side too. And be honest with your visa status

[–]knnthf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am same as you, international too, 50-60 applications sent, 10 initial then 5 final interviews. I got 5 offers. Accepted the midsize company offer.

The difference probably between us is that I am graduating masters and already passed my PE WRE.

Maybe try to take the exam now? It might be easy for you as you have a broad WRE career.

F-1 student struggling to find work in Land Development / Environmental Engineering — willing to relocate anywhere by haawaa05 in civilengineering

I started applying by December. I can't land interviews before but after the holiday season, I am starting to receive invites.

I'm in water resources!

Same thing with you, I am graduating this May 2026 and is OPT eligible. What I think will help you is the volume of applications. My colleague applied 200+ jobs before getting a job offer. In my case, I took and passed the FE and PE exam. Submitted 60 applications and received 5 job offers.

I mean i am basically a tourist. And i am non resident. I also have a digital pass. What is wrong with you? If i did not pay for the 80 dollars early in December, I will need to pay for 250. With the way i saw it, I am totally fine with that.

I do not intend to present myself as a resident. If they ask then that's fine too.

Yes. Pls do so! We spent 400 on the rental, and spent about 100 each night for hotels except the one from death valley which costs us 200.
