As an immigrant to find a decent job in the United States: Upwardly Global experts answered questions from readers ForumDaily

It can be difficult for immigrants to realize their own American dream: they are hampered by the language barrier, lack of understanding of the labor market, and the peculiarities of presenting information about themselves - from building a resume to communicating at an interview. As a result, a person with knowledge and professional experience engages in unskilled labor without the risk of claiming more. Company Upwardly global helps free highly skilled immigrants and refugees find decent work in the United States.

  • live in California, Washington, Texas, Illinois, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, Georgia, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Maryland or Columbia;
