I am about to graduate from a top-ranked university in chemical engineering in US. But as frustrating as it sounds.. I haven't been able to get opportunities to work. All the companies that visit college or the ones I try to apply have one thing in common: "we don't hire international students". 

How do you deal with that situation? (you know what I mean.. the catch-22... need green card to find a job.. need job to get green card!)

If you are working, what kind of company? Any suggestions (please keep it clean).. are welcome.

Please share your experiences even if:

-you are not in the same field..

-you had been through this situation.

-you know anyone who had been in/through this situation.

I need serious suggestion. Please share your thoughts.
