Look, I work with the hiring team. Several months ago we interviewed a few folks that were seeking visas, they had to do their own funding and leg work. It is just too spendy and time consuming, and Atlas does not foot the bill. We aren’t even interviewing such folks at this time and haven’t for several months. As I have stated several times it is;
US citizens
Others that have the right to work, e.g. Green cards or visas from an American spouse
Aussies as they have a much quicker and cheaper visa route
Folks that worked another visa on their own and are awaiting final authorization
So please stop encouraging others and stating that “someone told me” that Atlas will hire anyone from anywhere.
