You have to have a H1B visa, and from what I understand, it's much harder to get those than they used to be. If you want to work as a programmer for a US company, move to India.

Pick a major city, get the appropriate Visa and humble yourself and the first job will be easy to obtain. Post an ad on Craig's List
Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost

If i was in your position - i would not think for moving to US for now at least - immediately after brutal murder of CEO of Al-queda. Let the fire get cool down a bit and then move to States - but Russian girls are so pretty - why do you want to leave them and move to US :wtf: ?

With the H1B visa supply tightly limited your best bet might be to get hired for a multinational and try to get transferred to a US office after the fact. An acquaintance of mine did that. He started for MS Vancouver and was transferred to the Redmond office a year or two later.

"Why don't you tie a kerosene-soaked rag around your ankles so the ants won't climb up and eat your candy ass." - Dale Earnhardt, 1997H-1Bs are (in theory) only available for specialities such as engineering, biotech, medicine and other highly skilled "specialty occupations." In addition, the visa holder must have a bachelor's degree or equivalent from an internationally accredited university; mere work experience is not sufficient. A visa holder may only work for the sponsoring company, which must benefit directly from the worker's skills: the sponsor may not be an agency or other placement or work-for-hire outsourcer, and if the visa holder leaves the employ of that sponsor, he must either get a new visa with his new employer or leave the country. Again, all in theory. H-1B is also a "non-immgrant" visa, and visa holders will have a difficult time getting resident status. The visas have gotten much more difficult to get in the last few years mainly because US companies have been abusing the program to Hell and back: there is a glut of cheap immigrant labor that has displaced equally qualified American workers. There was a high profile case about two years ago in Florida, where an insurance company had hired about 40 H-1B workers as unskilled operators taking claims information over the phone. There are other types of work permits, such as the EAD (employment authorization document) issued by the Immigration Service. They have few restrictions, but are designed more for people who either will be staying only a short time (students on work-study programs or non-residents working in the US for a foreign-based company) or as a temporary measure on the path to getting resident alien status (aka a "green card.") Best of luck.

But he could mention them to any prospective employer, saying he'd be willing to bring a half-dozen or so with him. Ah, Snezhana and Marina...miss you...sometimes. :sigh:

osama bin laden died recently - do i need to say anymore ? His followers are in preparation for major attacks. So Russia seams to be safer than States at the moment unless you live in some small not popular city in States. Anyway all the best!

A work permit cannot be obtained until the person has a job, so finding employment has to come before getting the appropriate visa. This can actually work to the person's benefit, as a large firm will have much more experience navigating the process on behalf of a visa applicant than the applicant himself. Trust me: Kafka was writing about US immigration policy and law. X|
