EB3 Tech related jobs

Question

Hi everyone,

I'm currently in the U.S. on an H-2B visa, working in retail, but my background is in Computer Engineering.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering and about a year of experience working at a startup and as an SAP HCM consultant in Turkey. Ideally, I'd like to continue my career in tech, but I'm also open to changing industries if they are paying fair hourly wages.

I've been researching the EB-3 process, but almost every opportunity I find is for fast food, restaurants, housekeeping, or similar entry-level jobs.

My questions are:

  • Is it realistically possible to find an EB-3 sponsor for office, IT, manufacturing, logistics, warehouse, or other non-fast-food jobs?
  • Has anyone here successfully transitioned from an H-2B visa to an EB-3 position in a professional or semi-skilled role?
  • Where do employers that directly sponsor EB-3 usually advertise these jobs?
  • Is networking and contacting companies directly more effective than using agencies?

I'd appreciate hearing from people who have actually gone through the process. I'm trying to understand whether I should keep looking for better EB-3 opportunities or if fast food and similar jobs are simply the reality of the current market.

Thank you!
