About This Webinar
On June 22nd, President Trump signed an executive order suspending the issuance of H-1B, L-1, and the intern or trainee category of the J1 visa until Dec 31, 2020. The rationale behind this executive order was to protect the American citizens whose jobs were lost due to COVID19.
What has since followed has been expected sensationalism by much of popular media outlets. Unfortunately, most of the discussion around the executive order has increased the confusion and fear among international student and applicants. It has raised more questions than it answered.
Join Soundarya Balasubramani, Product Manager at Salesforce & Author of "Admitted" (as well as a current H-1B visa recipient), and Rishabh Singh, the founder & CEO of Gradly, to discuss the recent executive order and separate fact from fiction.
We will conclude the webinar with 30 mins of QnA where we will answer any and all of your questions. So bring your queries & tell your friends! We look forward to seeing you there.
