We also provide detailed information from USCIS for each H1B position to determine which of these are J-1 waiver positions.

Select the states that you are interested in and gain access to the following information on a state level:

- A list of hospitals that have sponsored a H1B attendings in the selected specialty since 2017

- Location of the hospitals

- Year of employment start

- User feedback on certain hospitals (if there is any)



Please see an example below for anesthesiology attending positions in Maine.

Once you click on Extra Information for a specific hospital, you will get a list of positions with detailed information from USCIS that helps you determine whether this hospital has been sponsoring J-1 waiver positions:

- Start date of employment

- End date of H1B visa (we only show 3 years duration positions)

- Visa submission month/year

- USCIC New Employment Designation (^ symbol)

- Salaries offered over the years

You can tell J-1 waiver positions apart from the rest (e.g. continued H1B employment) by looking at the start month and the USCIS designation of New Employment (^ symbol). This way you gain even more confidence which hospital sponsored J-1 waiver attendings.

Please see an example below for anesthesiology attending positions at Eastern Maine Medical Center. The attending positions that are most likely J-1 waiver positions are highlighted with the blue boxes.

Why should you trust us? Why would you have confidence in the data?

We mined this data from US Government Agencies and filtered it using our own algorithms. My friend went through this process herself and she can personally contest that the information given to her during her interviews matches with the data put together here, meaning that the data source is reliable and our technique of extracting the data is also reliable.

You cannot find another list like this online. There are recruiters out there who claim they have a list of hospitals that sponsor J1 waivers. We interacted with them and they only present you a subset of these places through their personal connections. They can be useful, but they cannot (and by the contracts we have seen) will not offer you a list of places that you can choose from.

We ask for your feedback!

We would like to keep this information up-to-date for future J1 visa holders. We ask you to submit your confirmation of a hospital that has sponsored J1 waiver physicians in a certain year, or confirmation that it has not sponsored one. Once you find a position and you start, if you could also send us a confirmation, that would be greatly appreciated. We will share this information with future users. On our end, we keep this list updated on a regular basis. Last time we update our database was 10/6/2024.
