Job Placement
Our legal team connects skilled foreign workers with U.S. employers and support the visa process throughout.
Job placement pairs skilled workers with employers who need them, backed by attorneys at every stage.
Job placement is the work of connecting a qualified candidate with a U.S. employer who needs them, then carrying that match through to a real, lawful position. For a skilled worker outside the United States, finding that opportunity alone is difficult. Knowing which employers are hiring, which roles fit your background, and which visa applies is harder still. That is the gap our job placement service fills. At Sapon Immigration, the process starts when a candidate submits a resumé to our job placement database. When an opportunity opens with one of our employer clients, we search that database of skilled foreign workers to find who best fits the role and the business. Matching runs both ways. We look for the person who qualifies for the position the company needs, and just as carefully, for the person who qualifies for the visa that position requires. When both line up, the candidate, the employer, and the process all come out ahead.
From there, qualified candidates move through a clear set of steps. A first-round interview assesses skills, knowledge, experience, and academic background. Each candidate is then vetted against the basic visa requirements for the specific role and visa type. Top performers who meet every requirement and fit the organization are invited to a recruitment event, where we host further eligibility interviews and make hiring recommendations to the employer. Once decisions are made, offers go out to the selected candidates on the employer’s behalf.
What sets our placement work apart is that legal guidance runs through all of it. We are not only a recruiter. We are a law firm, so an attorney is thinking about visa approval from the very start, not after a candidate is chosen. That order protects everyone and gives each placement its strongest chance of success. We place more than 500 candidates per year in U.S. companies across the agriculture, industrial, and manufacturing industries. Years of established relationships with employers in these fields mean we know who is hiring and what they need. Knowing these industries well also helps each candidate settle in and build a career once they arrive. Our team is bilingual and works with candidates in both English and Spanish, so you can ask questions and follow each step in the language you know best. From resumé to arrival, we keep you informed.
For candidates, the value is peace of mind: a strong position and the legal support to see the process through. For employers, it is a vetted, work-authorized hire without the guesswork. Either way, the goal is the same: a match that holds up for the long term. If you are a skilled worker seeking an opportunity in the United States, or an employer looking to fill roles with reliable talent, our team is ready to help. People matter most, and every placement we make reflects that.

Years of relationships with agriculture, food processing, and industrial businesses give candidates access to openings well beyond any single area.

Wherever the opportunity is, we match the right worker to the right role and stay with them through arrival and their first days on the job.
Answers to Your
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get started with job placement as a candidate?
The first step is submitting your resumé to our job placement database. From there, when a role opens with one of our employer clients, we search that database to find candidates whose skills and background fit the position and the business. If you are a match, we invite you to a first-round interview to assess your skills, knowledge, experience, and academic level. Our bilingual team works with candidates in both English and Spanish, so you can follow each step clearly. We place more than 500 candidates a year, so this process runs regularly and reliably.
What kinds of jobs and industries do you place candidates in?
We focus on the industries where we have deep, long-standing employer relationships: agriculture, food processing, industrial, and manufacturing. These fields regularly need skilled foreign workers and rely on seasonal and specialized labor. Each year we place more than 500 candidates in U.S. companies across these sectors. Knowing these industries well matters because it helps us match candidates to roles they will succeed in and helps each worker build a real career after arrival. Our recruitment team includes members with extensive agricultural backgrounds, so we understand what these employers actually need day to day.
Do you handle the visa, or just find me the job?
Both. That is what makes our placement service different from a standard recruiter. We are a law firm, so an attorney is involved from the start, thinking about visa approval before a candidate is even selected. After you accept an offer, our team begins the visa filings and guides you through the application, arrival, and beyond. Founder Janie Sapon has practiced immigration law for more than a decade, and our attorneys carry a 90 percent-plus approval rate over the past ten years. The job and the visa are handled together, not left in separate hands.
How do you match candidates with employers?
Matching runs in two directions at once. We look for the candidate who qualifies for the position the employer needs, and just as carefully, for the candidate who qualifies for the visa that position requires. Both have to line up for a placement to work. We assess skills, knowledge, experience, and academic level through interviews, then vet each candidate against the visa requirements for that specific role. Top candidates attend a recruitment event with further interviews before offers go out. Our recruitment team has placed thousands of candidates over the years, so this matching process is well practiced.
What support do I get after I’m placed?
Our work does not end at the offer. Before you travel, we prepare first-time visa workers for what to expect, so arrival goes smoothly. Once you start, we coordinate with the employer to help your first days go well, and we stay available afterward for questions about status, travel, renewals, and next steps in your career. Because we handle both the recruiting and the legal side, you have one team to turn to throughout. Our senior associate, Kathleen C. Lee, serves as a USCIS liaison, which keeps our guidance grounded in current agency practice long after placement.
