Subject: Re: Current situation, where I am with real paying jobs and pl=n moving forward: Currently: essentially "contract=work" with Liaigre. They pay me an hourly rate for my cad plans but w=th current demand I don't make much. In addition they get me 3 days a =eek as a free internship. In addition, the Marketing Manager for USA is go=ng on maternity leave and she has only been handing her things off to me. =y work is not intern work, I am the only one in the company in North Ameri=a who uses CAD and one of two that can use the back end of our trade websi=e, and create our product tearsheets in indesign(The other of which is lea=ing for 3 months). So this cant continue unpaid. =estoration Hardware have recently introduced interior designers into their=stores to provide a full design service for their clients. Their recruitme=t manager is very interested in me to fill the position of gallery designe= in their East Hampton store. I have had two telephone interviews and met =er in person. The next step is to meet the gallery manager at the location= I stated my salary requirement as 60k and she said she would also discuss=a relocation package for me once we get further along. The issue I am coming across is the international aspect. Every job o= our Parsons job board says "No international applicants". I spo=e to Arda to get a good answer for them. He said they don't want to bo=her with H1B's because there are minimum salary requirements and for t=ese jobs and junior designers salaries seem to be as low as 40k. Companies=hiring that I have enquired at (telephonically) say they don't want to=train someone and lose them due to the H1B being a lottery process. Arda d=d say that because I have held one before, I may be cap exempt, he is goin= to look into it. So I am applying regardless of their statements (to the =merican companies that worst case scenario have offices in London). I met =ith someone from Meyer Davis so long, and we had a nice talk and he said t=at my is extremely sophisticated for someone so fresh out of school. =div> I have recruitment agencies reaching out through linked=n since I added my Liaigre expoerience so I have more leads with that.
