  7. Editor’s note

    How this list is ranked

    These employers are ranked by how many roles open to OPT candidates they have live on Migrate Mate right now. OPT is your own work authorization rather than something the employer files, so the practical question is whether the role fits your field of study and whether the team has hired people on OPT before.

How OPT works

OPT is work authorization for F-1 students, not an employer-sponsored visa. The student applies through their school's international office (the DSO) and USCIS with Form I-765; the employer files nothing. The role must relate to the student's field of study. OPT gives up to 12 months of work authorization, with a 24-month STEM extension for eligible degrees.

OPT Employers for Data Analysts: Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies sponsor the most OPT visas for Data Analysts?

Capital One has the most, with 66 live OPT jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by JPMorganChase (22) and Oscar Management Corporation (12). Across the 10 companies on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 133 live OPT jobs, updated daily.

Who is eligible for OPT?

F-1 students are eligible for OPT if they have been enrolled full-time for at least one full academic year at a Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP)-certified school. OPT work must relate directly to the student's field of study. Pre-completion OPT is available before graduation; post-completion OPT provides up to 12 months of work authorization after graduation, with a 24-month STEM extension available to qualifying students.

Do data analysts qualify for F-1 OPT as a specialty occupation?

Yes. Data analysts typically hold a bachelor's degree in a specific field, which is exactly the specialty-occupation standard F-1 OPT is built around. What matters is that the employer classifies the role under a matching occupation code and that your degree lines up with it.

How do I get OPT through a top employer?

OPT authorization is obtained through your Designated School Official and USCIS, not through the employer. Your DSO updates your SEVIS record and issues a new Form I-20 recommending OPT, which you submit to USCIS along with Form I-765. Once USCIS approves your application, you receive an Employment Authorization Document. You then present that EAD to any employer whose role relates to your field of study, and you can begin working without any filing obligation on the employer's part.
