As easy as LinkedIn. Built for planning ahead.

If you can search LinkedIn, you can use this. The difference is what you see: whether your major, your school and your employer lead to a job an international student can get, through CPT, OPT and H-1B. Years before you apply.

Choosing a school

Pick the school by where your major gets hired

Rankings tell you how hard a school is to get into. None of them tell you the job market for your major, or how many employers there hire international graduates in it.

RankingsWhere They Hire
Cost, acceptance rate, SAT range✓✓
The jobs your major leads to—✓
The cities with the most H-1B filings for those jobs—✓
How many employers file there, and the median pay—✓
Where this school’s city ranks for your jobs—✓
STEM OPT (up to 36 months) or OPT (12) for your major—✓
  1. 1

    Start from your major, not the ranking

    Every major shows how many international students graduate in it, and whether it gets STEM OPT for up to 36 months of work after school, or OPT for 12.

  2. 2

    Order schools by the job you want

    Pick the job you want after school. Schools in the cities with the most of those jobs come first. Tick your budget to keep only the ones you can afford.

  3. 3

    See where your major gets hired

    Open a school. The Job market tab shows the jobs your major leads to, the cities with the most H-1B filings for each, how many employers file there, the median pay, and where this school’s city ranks.

  4. 4

    Know the employers by name

    139K employers with H-1B history. Look one up: how many it filed, for which jobs, and where. Its company page then shows the job titles and the pay.

  5. 5

    Keep it in your plan

    Save the schools, the major and the careers. My plan keeps them next to the jobs and companies you follow, for the day you start applying.
