Dear Doctors,
I am writing this on behalf of my wife who is a doctor with USMLE 1, 2 (ck+cs). She is currently on H4 for 2 1/2 years. She wants to get some sort of job (either residency or research job) on H1. J1 visa is no option for us.
I am an IT professional and know nothing about medical job prospects. So, please help us in these questions.
1. Can she get an H1B with USMLE 1 and 2? I heard step 3 is also required.
2. Where should we look for job listings for doctors - residency or research jobs where the employers are normally willing to offer H1?
3. I heard that it is easier to get research jobs form universities on H1? True or false? If true, how and where to look for these jobs?
As I wrote earlier and is clearly evident from my questions too, I do not know much on this subject, so please take some time and help us understand the process and the job market.
I would highly appreciate your kind response.
