yes unfortunately because some jobs wants clearance government jobs for example Dont really hire people with ead Without green card it is kinda tough to find a good job not talking like server driver or other jobs but of course not impossible keep grinding it will happen trust to process

@Shan Shan what field are you in? what kinda job are you looking for ?

😂

@lady Rose Banking and Finance

I know you have to be a Citizen to get Government jobs. But financial institutions are not the Government so I didn’t even think they would want green card.

i am a elementary teacher using my EAD 💁🏻‍♀️ there are so many jobs to search for.

@Shan Shan i don't know if they will accept your diploma from another country, so that might be the problem. And also, banking and finance, they want to make sure that you have clean background and that they can trust you

Federal law prohibits that. No job will ask you about your immigration status till you get to I-9 verification. Most hiring managers don't know much about immigration status, it strictly a HR thing. @Shan Shan maybe you need to rework your resume. Make sure you are grounded in whatever role you're applying for. Hiring managers don't have time to look at your resume when you apply, the use AI to sieve out unqualified candidates. I got a very good paying engineering job few weeks after I got my EAD. All the jobs applied called me for series of interviews.

@Shan Shan I’m in the financial field too, I started as a banker just to get my foot in the door and I’ve worked my way up since then and now almost making 6figures with the same financial institution ,since the beginning till now I’ll still using EAD. My suggestion to you is update your resume and apply to lotssss of bank jobs that fit your resume , all you need is work authorization and mind you they don’t ask if you’re a citizen, they only as if you’re authorized to work in this country.

Thanks everyone. I will keep looking

@lady Rose I am looking for a way to get in as a banker having a bachelor in finance. I work at J.P. Morgan can you please share an email I can contact you from?

I'm with @lady Rose on this one. I'm also in accounting and worked my way up too with just EAD. The companies largely don't care about that because they don't know. Are you walking around advertising it that you're not a citizen? You might be unwittingly inviting discrimination your way but I have not even provided proof of my education to get a job. If you pass the interview, that's the only time they should know your status when they are onboarding you.

I’m working for DOE school I have 5 year EAD valid

@reto mont I agree with you 100% there are so much job out there I was hire to work as a pharmacist technician at a hospital I didn’t take it I choose they school to work because of my kid I can spend more time with her as well whenever there is holidays we both be home

@bless Emma i am also a phlebotomist and medical assistant, i choose education due to my children and so i can spend time with them. but theres lots of work, they dont even ask for my EAD i had to guve them just in case

@reto mont I understand is they same with me too

Hi everyone. Thank you for your feedback. I received an email to interview using hirevue for a banking role. I’m not familiar with hirevue so I’ll do some reading.
