Employment Opportunities for International Students
Listen to Pearl, an MSIS Graduate Ambassador, as she gives some great information to international students looking for employment while studying on an F-1 visa. Pearl utilized the University of Utah’s International Office to find job opportunities, fill out paperwork, and attend forums to learn more about the process. She explains the difference between OPT and CPT and gives examples of how International students can also get jobs working as TA’s and on-campus opportunities.
