NEPAL_SACH22,

I am also In the same situation..Donot Go for CPT when You have OPT in hand, would be suicidal..If u can make a letter stating u are working for some Job even a volunteer Job(has to be in ur field of study) will save u from 90 days rule..and this is rule is u cannot be unemployed continioulsy for more than 90 days , not the initial 90 days period after ur OPT..Yeah, Dhoti consulatancy are reluctant in hiring..Question..What is priority Job or H1B? If H1b go and sign the docs that dhotti give u..if job, keep on trying, Without Foreign graduates i don't think Americans will be fill out the posn..Keep on trying, if possible try to do the Job in W2 or Corp to corp..I still don't think that economy has become severe for IT jobs..Eye small companies, Send ur resume ,call the HR manager(Courtesy call)....Small Time Jobs can also save ur staus like working in Warehouse with mobile assembling(If u r in IT)..Been there done that..
