In this week’s Immigration Law for Tech Startups podcast, I am joined by Robert Adams, a cross-cultural trainer, and consultant. In 2016, Rob founded Chai and Coaching to help international students and professionals succeed in America.
Applying as an international student in America comes with its own challenges. Rob’s YouTube channel offers a series of videos where he interviews experts on a wide range of topics. They share tips and insights on how to fund your studies and lower your cost of living in the U.S. as well as the best and worst degrees for jobs in America.
Rob also covers topics such as interview strategies, visas, green cards, and a variety of other timely topics relevant to the audience of international students and young professionals making their way into the United States.
