Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Program Manager Jobs at Aprio Jobs
Frame Your PMP Around Client Delivery
Aprio's Program Manager roles are tied to client-facing engagements, not just internal operations. Tailor your resume to highlight cross-functional project oversight in professional services environments, since accounting firms evaluate delivery experience differently than tech or manufacturing employers.
Target Aprio's Advisory Service Lines First
Aprio hires Program Managers across multiple practice areas, but advisory and consulting engagements tend to generate the most sustained demand. Researching which service lines are actively expanding helps you apply where sponsorship conversations are most likely to move forward.
Find Open Roles Through Migrate Mate
Search Migrate Mate to browse current Program Manager openings at Aprio filtered by sponsorship eligibility. It saves you from applying blindly to roles where immigration support hasn't been confirmed by the employer's own filing history.
Clarify PERM Timing Before Accepting an Offer
Aprio's sponsorship history skews toward permanent residency pathways like EB-2 and EB-3, which require a PERM labor certification before USCIS filing. Ask HR directly whether they initiate PERM within your first year, since DOL processing alone can take twelve months or more.
Align Your Degree to the Role's Specialty Occupation Standard
USCIS requires that the position qualifies as a specialty occupation. For Program Manager roles at an accounting firm, a degree in business administration, management information systems, or a related field strengthens the petition considerably more than a generalist background.
Prepare Your I-140 Supporting Documents Early
Once Aprio files your PERM and moves to the I-140 immigrant petition stage, USCIS may issue a Request for Evidence on experience equivalency. Gather detailed employment verification letters, performance reviews, and project scope documentation well before your employer submits the petition.

Find Program Manager at Aprio JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Aprio sponsor H-1B visas for Program Managers?
Aprio's documented sponsorship activity for Program Manager roles focuses on permanent residency categories rather than H-1B. If you're currently on H-1B status through another employer, you'd need to discuss a transfer with Aprio directly. Candidates on OPT or seeking initial H-1B sponsorship should confirm Aprio's current policy during the offer stage, as sponsorship decisions are made role by role.
Which visa types does Aprio typically use for Program Manager sponsorship?
Aprio's Program Manager sponsorship has followed EB-2 and EB-3 immigrant visa pathways, which are employment-based Green Card categories. EB-2 requires a position demanding an advanced degree or exceptional ability, while EB-3 covers professionals with a bachelor's degree. Both routes require a PERM labor certification filed with the DOL before USCIS can adjudicate the immigrant petition.
How do I apply for Program Manager jobs at Aprio?
You can browse current Program Manager openings at Aprio through Migrate Mate, which filters roles by sponsorship eligibility so you're not guessing which positions are immigration-friendly. Aprio posts roles across multiple service lines and office locations, so checking regularly improves your chances of catching newly opened positions that match your background in professional services or client delivery.
What qualifications does Aprio expect for Program Manager candidates seeking sponsorship?
Aprio typically looks for Program Managers with a bachelor's degree in business, management, or a related field, alongside demonstrated experience managing complex, multi-stakeholder projects. Accounting or professional services industry experience strengthens your application significantly. For EB-2 sponsorship specifically, roles often require evidence of specialized knowledge or an advanced degree, so a master's or equivalent experience is an asset.
How do I understand the timeline from offer to Green Card at Aprio?
The process starts with PERM labor certification, which DOL currently processes in roughly twelve to eighteen months. After PERM approval, Aprio files an I-140 with USCIS, which takes several months under standard processing. If your priority date is current for your country of birth, you can then file for adjustment of status. For Indian or Chinese nationals, visa backlogs can extend the total timeline significantly beyond initial filing.
