    Are there a lot of UofT students that can get internship in the US? I heard the J1 visa might be a hassle and even the large tech companies like FANG don’t like it? It cost a lot to sponsor J1?

    • @CreatedbyEllaYT
      @CreatedbyEllaYT  3 роки тому +3

      I think most students from UofT stay in Canada for internships. However, I actually think that larger tech companies are more willing to sponsor visas than smaller ones since they have more funds. For my internship, although it is US based and the majority of the people who I've met so far go to American universities, I've also met a good amount of people who go to a Canadian uni.

If it is all remote now for internship, how can first-time intern cross the border and apply for social security number in the US? I think the company will need social security number in order to add intern student in the payroll, right?

      it’s definitely possible to get into tech without a college degree! a degree can give you an edge but experience and technical skills are still more valued. i know that’s at least the case for the united states. watch people who were self taught and get tips from them! DONT give up.
