7 WAYS TO START A CAREER IN THE US

Many Silicon Valley tech giants are founded by immigrants to the United States. Google co-founder Sergey Brin is from Russia; Andrew Grove – Intel co-founder is from Hungary; Steve Chen of Youtube and Jerry Yang of Yahoo are both from Taiwan.
Immigrant entrepreneurs continue to be successful. Mike Kreiger – a Brazilian businessman moved to California in 2004 – is one of the two co-founders of the prestigious Instagram. And there are many more names from around the world who have successfully established their careers in this multicultural nation, especially in the field of technology. If you want to try at this promising land, here are some ways you can go to do business and startup in the US.
Option 1: EB-5 Visa
For foreign investors (Alien Investor). To obtain this visa, you need to invest US $ 1 million in an American business. If the facility is located in a remote area, you only need to invest US $ 500,000.
If you don’t have money, there are other options:
Option 2: Visa EB-2 (C)
This is a work visa. However, in this category (C), you do not need to be hired. What you need is a masters degree or higher and a special ability in the field in which you work. You also need to prove your arrival in the US will bring benefits to them.
If you are too young and have no special abilities, there is still a chance:
Option 3: Visa E-2
This time you don’t need to invest a million dollars. All you need is to set up a business in the US with an initial capital of at least $ 100,000. You also need to be a citizen of one of the countries on the Treaty Investors list (countries that have signed trade agreements with the US).
If your strengths are talents, you will have another option:
Option 4: Visa O-1
O-1 visas are for people with special abilities, including business abilities. For example, if you write an interesting software and are mentioned by American newspapers, you can try this type of visa. You also need a sponsoring employer. Hopefully it’s a great startup you want to collaborate with.
