Find a corporate job in NYC
Hey all,
I am a French citizen and plan to move to NY in January for my spouse’s job. I will be looking for a job myself
I am trying to understand how hard is it to find a well paid position for a foreign citizen? I am not married yet but we are planning to get married so I get a work permit for the US.
I have never worked abroad. My working background: consulting for 4 years (2 in a French boutique and 2 at McKinsey) and now I have been working in an entertainment company as strategy manager for the past 1.5 years. My goal would be to find a job in Media&Entertainment industry but I really don’t know the job market there.
How hard is it for a foreigner that has never worked in the US to find a job even with consulting background? Also I speak English, but I am not a native so that might be a problem as well. Finally, how long does it take on average to find a corporate job?
Any other tips are very much welcome!
Thanks a lot :)
