台留學生在美就業有靠山
協和基金會 將與經文處聯手搭橋樑
|
同 時也是協和鋁門窗總裁的陳秋貴表示，很多台灣留學生畢業後希望留在美國增加工作經驗，但是往往找不到適當的管道，或者是尋找的工作並不適合自身的背景條 件，對學生與廠商都是耗時無效。因此希望透過結合幾間深具規模的在美台灣廠商，成立一個台灣留學生就業輔導委員會，作為學生與廠商間的橋樑，當留學生將履 歷寄發到委員會後，委員會可以先做第一步的審核與面試，了解學生的能力與興趣，再推荐給適合的公司廠商，創造雙贏的機會。

外籍生實習 OPT延至29月
國內安全部長契爾托夫說：「這項法規將使企業能夠吸引和留住高技能外國員工，讓美國公司在世界經濟掌握優勢。藉著把參加電子查證計畫(E-Verify)的企業僱用的學生的實習訓練期延長17個月，我們進一步確保美國的合法工作人力，並協助優良企業公民。」
理工科外籍生要獲准延長OPT，必須符合下列條件：正參與為期12個月的OPT；已在美國大學拿到科學、技術、工程、數學方面的學位；為美國雇主從事與主修領域有直接關係的工作；雇主必須參加電子查證計畫；適當維持F-1身分。
有這麼多華人學生入圍 表示華人在美國科學研究漸漸地佔有一席之地
有這麼多在金字塔上面的華人也表示有更多的華人也在金字塔的中間與下面努力
雖然我不會很期望自己小孩將來在金字塔頂端
只有他們真的有天份 一切盡自己的力量
美國的學習環境不會埋沒他們的
過多的壓力畢竟會揠苗助長反而不好
但是我還是衷心的替這些學生加油
