Your placement, arranged for you
We secure your paid US placement and manage the process with you: CV preparation, employer introductions, interview preparation, placement confirmation and J-1 sponsorship and visa coordination.
Before you travel, you know where you will work, what you will do and what you will earn. You have one Aureus contact to bring the arrangements together.
The right programme for your background
Students and recent graduates usually apply through J-1 Intern. Professionals with relevant experience can apply through J-1 Trainee. We check your education, experience and dates, then confirm the programme that fits.
Already in the US on F-1/OPT, or already holding an employer offer? We have separate services for those starting points.
Clear terms before you commit
You receive a private proposal with the programme fee, inclusions and placement guarantee. Your employer pays you separately for the work you do.
We also set out the costs to budget for, including visa and SEVIS charges, insurance, flights and living expenses where these are not included. That gives you a clear picture of the move before you enrol.
Questions for your next step
Is this warehouse or delivery work?+
No. These examples concern professional analysis, procurement research, logistics planning and trade processes, subject to an appropriate supervised programme.
Are the opportunities paid?+
Yes. Our paid US placement programmes put you with an employer who pays you for your work. Your offer confirms the pay, hours and role before you travel. The employer’s pay is separate from the programme fee.
Can I choose the city or company?+
Tell us your preferences. The options we can discuss depend on your background, suitable host availability and programme approval. A preferred city or employer is not guaranteed.
