Highlights
For Students on F1 Visa:
I received several messages from students on F1 visa who are finding it challenging to find jobs in the current financial climate. It can be frustrating and overwhelming to feel like all your hard work and dedication to your studies is not being recognized. It is especially challenging with the pressure of finding the positions within a timeframe imposed due to the visa rules.
Skylark Labs is hiring and is happy to offer internships to qualified students (that may convert to full-time positions) which can assist with the F1 visa situation. We believe in the potential and talent of students and want to give you the opportunity to gain valuable experience and build your careers.
Please share it with anyone who can benefit from this!
