Demystifying the International Faculty & Staff Hiring Process: An Employer’s Guide
- Leif Olsen (Iowa State University)
Abstract
Goal four of Iowa State University’s strategic plan includes recruiting, hiring, training, and retaining diverse employees. Recruiting and hiring international faculty and staff helps ISU meet this strategic goal. International faculty and staff bring rich perspective and contribution to our community. Employers are often apprehensive about the additional resources needed to hire and retain international candidates. This presentation will help address misconceptions about hiring international candidates, review the processes for securing work-eligible U.S. immigration status, and provide resources to help employers through the process. Presenters will share personal stories and perspectives from an international staff member, an ISU hiring manager, and the ISSO Scholar and Employment Unit.
