Hi everyone,

I’m a Computer Engineering graduate from UNAM in Mexico with 6+ years of experience in software development and DevOps, and I’ve recently been exploring the TN visa path to work legally in the U.S.

I wanted to ask people who already went through this process:

• What are your favorite platforms/websites to find TN-friendly jobs from Mexico?
• What was the correct process for you to get hired under a TN visa?
• Did you apply directly from Mexico or while already in the U.S.?
• How did you explain the TN visa process to recruiters/employers?
• Has anyone here successfully obtained a TN visa with a Computer Engineering degree or similar STEM background?

I’ve been applying through LinkedIn and Indeed, but I feel many recruiters confuse TN with H1B sponsorship.

I’d really appreciate hearing real experiences, tips, mistakes to avoid, or strategies that actually worked for you.

Thanks and greetings from Mexico!
