Hello,

I am a Mechanical Engineer and worked for 3 years in India before moving here with my wife. I would like to continue to work in the same field here in the US.

Can anyone share if they have had a similar experience?

Do i need to get any license to work in the US?

How do i go about finding work in US?

Thanks

Hari

Just apply. Unless you worked in something like HVAC design you will not need a license. Research companies in your industry and companies you know are present in India, because for them it might be an asset that you speak hindi.
