Description:
Immigration has become one of the most unpredictable areas of workforce planning. Many organizations still rely almost entirely on the H-1B lottery and PERM labor market tests, even though these pathways leave both employers and employees exposed to uncertainty, political shifts, and long delays.
In this webinar, Hendrik Pretorius, Director of Immigration Strategy and Partnerships at Boundless Immigration, will share how forward-thinking HR leaders are reshaping their immigration strategies. He will explain how to take a portfolio approach that balances familiar programs with underutilized options such as the O-1, J-1 STEM, EB-1A, and EB-2 NIW. The result is greater stability, stronger employee trust, and a competitive advantage in attracting and retaining top talent.
What you’ll take away:
– Why over-reliance on H-1B and PERM creates risk for employers and employees
– Practical ways to identify and support candidates for alternative visa and green card categories
– How to build development pathways for employees who are close to qualifying
– Steps to create a proactive immigration program that strengthens retention and resilience
