US Employer Requirements
In order for a US Company to be accepted as part of the 12 Month USA Work Programme they must be able to:
- 1. Must be able to present a business licence or certificate to operate within home country.
- 2. Provide Dun and Bradstreet (D&B) number.
- 3. Provide Employer Identification Number (EIN).
- 4. Verification of address, phone number and business activities by website.
- 5. Provide Workman’s Compensation Insurance Policy.
- 6. Have at least USD 3 million in annual revenues or more than 25 employees.
Please note some Government companies are exempt from some of the above requirements
How related to your field of study does your job have to be?
The job placement should be skilled and a career-building experience that is relevant to your studies, however, it is rather flexible when it comes to relating the job placement to your field of study, as this program is designed for people who have no work experience necessarily. For example, if the applicant studied International Business and wanted to do a management Internship at a restaurant, we see this as being acceptable.
