North American students are faced with many challenges in the search for jobs overseas. In order to help students start their careers smoothly, a number of organizations have emerged for international students to find jobs. Most of North American international student job search agencies were founded by Chinese students who had been successfully employed by well-known American companies. With their extensive job search experience and years of experience in the workplace, they know the hiring process of large companies in the United States, from resume writing, cover letter writing, to interview techniques, including phone interviews and face-to-face interviews can be a professional guide.
Next, let's introduce some popular international student job search agencies in detail:
1. Drill Insight: This is a service agency only for North American IT, and the technical consultant of this agency is a senior engineer of many first-line Internet companies. It has offices in New Jersey, USA, Chengdu and Beijing in China, and Noida and Chennai in India. This institution mainly provides career planning courses, mock interview courses, Ace algorithm and Java Data Structure Interview Courses, Java Full Stack Program Courses, etc. This institution is directly connected with the world's top 500 companies, providing students with a lot of internal work and unlimited 1v1 customization services, and has helped 3w+ students get the offer they want.
2. SeeUCareer: It is founded in 2015 in the United States, a professional job search counseling agency, most of the mentors from the world's top 500 companies, has a deep understanding of the North American job market. The institution has done well by attracting students with a strong reputation. Even students with modest school backgrounds can get into top tech companies like Apple and Amazon and top investment banks like Goldman Sachs and jpmorgan Chase with their help. Its consulting team is extremely professional, and when revising the resume for free, the comments and ideas show a high degree of professionalism. In addition, it will provide personalized professional advice based on students' personality, interests, talents and employment data.
3. Unicareer: It is started in the field of job search counseling in the United States in 2014, after obtaining financing, in order to pursue market growth and traffic, it has shifted its focus to the domestic university market since July 2016, and has reached a large number of users. The core advantage is that the platform course system is perfect, mainly recorded and broadcast courses, and the price is close to the people, attracting many students. However, there is less information about one-to-one customized courses and too much emphasis on the volume of recorded courses, which is partly influenced by investors. The consulting team has a certain degree of professionalism, but there is a certain moisture in revising the resume. Although it is good to record and broadcast lessons, it requires a high level of self-discipline from students. Due to the large scale of the platform and the large number of students, it may be difficult for teachers to take full care of each student.
4. Dreambigcareer: An institution established earlier, initially focusing on the four major tutoring, and later expanding to the financial field, mainly serving international students, with a high market coverage and considerable reading volume of public accounts. Focus on one-to-one job hunting plan development and internship arrangement, the course focuses on the financial field, some free videotaped courses. During the consultation process, it was found that the tutor taught through the APP, and the after-class Q&A was taken care of by others. Most of the courses are charged and the price is not low, the service contract shows that the course is mainly recorded and broadcast, and the internship will be donated, and the price is about 60,000 yuan. The institution has been acquired by the listed company Bosille, and the original core team cashed out in mid-2020, and the background of the team taking over is not clear.
5. WallStreetTequila: A large domestic job search agency, mainly for international students, especially North American and British students. It initially focused on job coaching in the financial sector, but later branched out into consulting, data and technology. The consultant will first evaluate the resume and communicate the career direction, then sort out the preparation section and introduce the product, which is divided by grade. The agency will display all the application results on the official website, mostly for financial consulting first-line companies, students accounted for a high proportion of prestigious schools, the main high-end market, the high cost of high version products. Although it claims to enroll thousands of students each year, the team has a limited number of members, and it is doubtful whether it can adequately take care of each student.
6. Vine: Mainly for American students, especially those who want to stay in the United States for employment, focusing on service engineering students, but also a small number of financial students. The offline publicity in the west coast is relatively strong, and the visibility in other regions is relatively low. Consultants can be appointed in advance, and the publicity focuses on internship and H1B full-time employment, but the specific process and method of counseling students for job hunting are rarely mentioned. This institution guarantees that employment in the United States is attractive, but carefully consider that if students lack the strength to rely only on channel arrangements, they may face the risk of being laid off during the probation period, and combined with the United States work visa policy, the risk is further increased. The company's team is not large, and the website only introduces the background of the founder and the expertise of the three consultants. The founder is a doctoral expert in engineering and has rich work experience.
7. VOYAGE: A newly established institution focused on consulting and investment banking with a relatively narrow scope of business. The public number provides a lot of dry goods content. It mainly provides one-to-one customized tutoring, charging between 30,000 and 60,000 yuan, which may include internships. In addition to limited classes, additional tutoring is provided. In general, the company is small in size and has a high focus on specific industries, so it is possible to obtain the guidance of core mentors, but its professionalism in other fields is relatively weak. When choosing, it is necessary to consider whether the industry direction of the child matches.
It should be reminded that even if the internship program is successful, North American students still face the risk of being fired. After all, it is not an opportunity to get by their own strength, and they still have to rely on their own to find a job after the internship.
Before selecting a career service agency, students and their parents should first clarify their own needs. They need to determine whether the job search location is domestic or international, and whether the career direction is in finance, computer science, accounting, the internet, or other fields. It is also important to ascertain whether precise career training (such as interview skills, resume revision, career planning) is required, or if an internship to enhance one's background will suffice.
During the consultation process, you can focus on the following points:
1. Mentors: It is essential to understand the quantity and quality of mentors, and pay attention to the number of mentors that you can freely choose and contact in the process of tutoring, rather than the total number of mentors claimed by the company; Inspect the quality and evaluation supervision mechanism of the mentor to ensure that the tutor can be contacted in a timely manner.
2. Post-service: You can ask whether there is a supervision mechanism for post-service, such as after-school planning and homework arrangement, as well as contact details in case of problems.
3. Service price and personal budget: At present, the prices of job-hunting agencies on the market are different, so you need to compare several and make a choice according to your own economic situation.
In short, North American students should plan and act as early as possible to find a job, and choose the right method and international student job search agencies according to your own situation. For the problem of drawing lots, no matter what your major is, try to choose a STEM-related major and strive for the opportunity of drawing lots for three years. If it is absolutely impossible, you can also consider going to work in offices in other countries to gradually solve the identity problem.
