U.S. Companies That Sponsor Foreign Graduates (Full List)
For international students graduating from U.S. institutions, finding an employer that is willing to sponsor a work visa is a major milestone. Below is a curated list of U.S. companies that **actively sponsor foreign graduates** — especially those with STEM, business, or consulting backgrounds — along with tips on how to target them in your job search.
Note: “Sponsorship” here typically means the company has filed for H-1B visa petitions or similar work-authorization pathways for foreign hires. Having past sponsorship history is a strong signal of employer openness.
Top Sponsoring Companies
Amazon.com Services LLC – The largest sponsor of H-1B visas in recent years in the U.S.
Microsoft Corporation – Strong history of sponsoring international talent across engineering and data roles.
Google LLC – Frequently hires and sponsors foreign graduates in software engineering, data science and AI.
Meta Platforms, Inc. – Sponsors H-1B visas for high-tech roles including AI, infrastructure and product management.
Apple Inc. – Known to sponsor foreign professionals especially in hardware, software and design roles.
Tata Consultancy Services Ltd. – Although globally based, TCS has a large U.S. presence and sponsors many H-1B petitions.
Infosys Ltd. – Another major IT services firm with consistent history of visa sponsorship in the U.S.
Accenture plc – Global consulting firm with sponsorship history in IT and business roles.
Oracle Corporation – Sponsors foreign talent especially in cloud, database and enterprise software roles.
Deloitte Consulting LLP – Consulting firm with U.S. operations, known to sponsor foreign hires for tech & business roles. How to Use This List in Your Job Search
Target these employers: Focus on companies that already have sponsorship history — your chances of being sponsored are higher.
Tailor your application: Highlight roles where these companies sponsor visas (often tech, data science, engineering, analytics).
Check job postings carefully: Some roles may explicitly say “no sponsorship” — avoid those if you require visa support.
Network: Connect with current/previous employees (especially foreign grads) on LinkedIn to ask about sponsorship culture and experience.
Stay work-authorization ready: Maintain valid visa status (OPT, STEM OPT) and gather proof of your eligibility — this makes it easier for employers to sponsor you.
Caveats & Realities
Sponsorship doesn’t guarantee selection — many companies sponsor thousands of workers, but you must compete on skills, fit and timing.
Some roles may require you to already have valid work authorization or be on OPT/STEM OPT — check the job description carefully.
Immigration rules and sponsorship costs can change — always consult career services or an immigration expert when negotiating your offer.
Conclusion
Navigating the U.S. job market as an international graduate means being strategic about employer choice. By focusing on companies with a proven history of sponsoring foreign graduates — like the ones listed above — you increase your chances of securing a visa-friendly position and building a strong U.S. career path.
