There’s a new resource for young architects navigating the tricky waters of international work authorization: Architect-US. Sponsored by the Spain-United States Chamber of Commerce, the new organization, launching June 25, will place international visa candidates in United States-based architecture firms.
Architect-US will screen participants, help with the State Department’s J-1 visa application process, and match qualified candidates to employers. The J-1 visa allows students and recent graduates to work as interns for up to 12 months; young professionals can work as trainees for up to 18. The full-time positions will provide real-world experience and compensation, with interns earning at least minimum wage and trainees receiving a salary based on experience.
