dark_80, i don't personally know any nepali H1b placement agencies. but i heard there are some in dallas and elsewhere. of course i am not implying the fact that they might be better than the desi ones you saw in sulekha but i see these agencies as a savior when all else fails. i know of many people who are getting sponsored for green card etc. but there is a trade off. you are paid very little while on H1b and contracting and you might have to pay extra for green card filing. the benefit is that the green card is in process even if the contracting ends and you are looking for other contracts. i'd advise to only go for the above mentioned route if all else fails. the best thing to do is to get a full time position with a company and have them sponsor H1b and green card. but it might be tough in today's times. unless you are in IT, it's pretty tough to get sponsorship. even the agencies/consultants might not be willing to sponsor you if you're not into IT because they can't place business people as fast as IT people. what exactly is your stream in business?
