The United States is an advanced country with abundant resources and advanced technology, and its innovation and R&D have always been at the forefront of the world. Therefore, many companies and institutions hope to recruit excellent R&D talents in the United States. However, for overseas employment personnel, visa policies and salary restrictions are the biggest challenges they face.
1. Country Profile
The United States is a diversified and open country whose economic and technological strength has long been at the forefront of the world. The United States has advanced technology research and development facilities and excellent technology talents, which attract many companies and institutions to invest and expand their businesses here.
2. Labor Conditions
The US labor market is very large, but the supply of talents in the technology field is relatively small. In particular, in some high-end fields such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, there is a lack of excellent talents. Therefore, many companies and institutions need to fill these gaps through overseas recruitment.
3.Visa Policies
The US visa policies are very complex. For overseas employment personnel, they need to meet certain conditions in order to obtain visas. Among them, H-1B visas are the most common type of visa, mainly for foreigners who engage in professional work in the United States. However, the number of H-1B visas is limited and the application is difficult, so many companies and institutions need to recruit foreign talents through other means.
4. Minimum Salary Restrictions
For those foreign talents who enter the United States to work through H-1B visas, they need to meet the minimum salary restrictions. According to the US labor department's regulations, the minimum salary standard for H-1B visa holders working in the United States is $20.65 per hour. This means that H-1B visa holders working 2080 hours a year must earn at least $43,076 in annual salary.
Converted into RMB, based on the current exchange rate, the minimum salary standard for H-1B visa holders working in the United States is about RMB 140 per hour and should earn at least RMB 355,000 in annual salary.
5.Conclusion
As an advanced country with advanced technology and excellent talents, the United States attracts many companies and institutions to invest and expand their businesses here. However, in terms of overseas employment, visa policies and minimum salary restrictions are the biggest challenges faced by overseas employment personnel. Therefore, companies and institutions need to understand relevant policies and develop corresponding recruitment plans in order to recruit excellent foreign talents better.
