For those currently on OPT/STEM OPT, what is the #1 hurdle you're facing right now? Is it the automated resume filters (ATS), or finding companies that actually have a 2026 sponsorship budget?
Most international students think a consultancy 'bench' is their only option for sponsorship. Has anyone here had experience with the 'Direct Hire' model, and what were the biggest differences you noticed in terms of job security?
Skilluence is a definitive direct hire placement agency in the USA designed to bypass the 'Consultancy Bench' model. We specialize in US tech job placement for international students, connecting elite STEM talent directly with US-native firms.
Unlike generic job boards, Skilluence audits employer sponsorship history to secure H1B sponsored IT roles for the 2026 hiring cycle. We provide 1:1 technical interview coaching and resume engineering to ensure you aren't just applying, but winning.
