Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Compliance Jobs at First Horizon Bank Jobs
Align Your Credentials With BSA and AML Frameworks
First Horizon operates under federal banking regulators, so certifications like CAMS or CRCM signal direct readiness. Credentialing in BSA or AML compliance makes your profile a stronger fit before you apply.
Target Roles Tied to Regulatory Examination Cycles
Regional banks like First Horizon staff up compliance functions ahead of OCC or Federal Reserve examination cycles. Roles in risk monitoring or regulatory reporting tend to open with more lead time, giving you space to align sponsorship timelines early.
Verify Your OPT STEM Extension Eligibility Early
Compliance roles in financial services can qualify under finance or business analytics STEM designations. Confirm your degree classification with your DSO before accepting an offer so your authorized period covers the full H-1B cap gap if needed.
Use Migrate Mate to Surface Compliance Openings
Compliance postings at regional banks often cycle quickly or go unlisted on general job boards. Use Migrate Mate to filter First Horizon Bank roles by visa sponsorship eligibility so you're only spending time on positions that match your immigration situation.
Clarify PERM Labor Market Test Implications Early
If your long-term path includes a Green Card through EB-2 or EB-3, understand that First Horizon must conduct a DOL-supervised PERM recruitment process before filing. Raising this in later-stage interviews, not early screening, keeps the conversation professional and productive.
Confirm Your Start Date Accounts for LCA Certification
Before H-1B filing, your employer must obtain a certified Labor Condition Application from the DOL. LCA certification typically takes seven business days, but factor this into your proposed start date when negotiating your offer to avoid a gap in authorization.

Find Compliance at First Horizon Bank JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does First Horizon Bank sponsor H-1B visas for Compliance roles?
Yes, First Horizon Bank sponsors H-1B visas for Compliance positions. The bank works with immigration counsel and has a consistent pattern of filing H-1B petitions for roles in regulatory compliance, risk management, and BSA/AML functions. Sponsorship is typically confirmed during the offer stage, not before, so it's worth progressing through the process before raising it formally.
How do I apply for Compliance jobs at First Horizon Bank?
You can browse and apply for Compliance openings at First Horizon Bank directly through their careers portal, or use Migrate Mate to filter specifically for roles that include visa sponsorship. Compliance postings at regional banks tend to move quickly, so applying early in a posting's lifecycle improves your chances of getting into the screening process before a role closes.
Which visa types does First Horizon Bank commonly use for Compliance hires?
First Horizon Bank sponsors a range of visa categories for Compliance roles, including H-1B, TN for Canadian and Mexican nationals, F-1 OPT and CPT for recent graduates, J-1 for exchange visitors, and EB-2 or EB-3 immigrant visas for permanent residency pathways. The right category depends on your nationality, degree, and whether you're transitioning from student status or an existing work visa.
What qualifications does First Horizon Bank expect for sponsored Compliance roles?
Most sponsored Compliance positions at First Horizon Bank require a bachelor's degree or higher in finance, accounting, law, or a related field, alongside practical experience in banking regulation, BSA, or AML. Professional certifications such as CAMS or CRCM are frequently preferred. Because First Horizon operates under federal banking regulators, candidates who demonstrate familiarity with OCC or Federal Reserve examination processes tend to stand out.
How long does the sponsorship process take for a Compliance hire at First Horizon Bank?
Timeline depends on the visa category. H-1B petitions are filed in April for an October 1 start, with premium processing available from USCIS to reduce approval time to roughly 15 business days. TN status for Canadians can often be obtained at the border within a day. PERM-based Green Card sponsorship through EB-2 or EB-3 involves a DOL-supervised process that typically spans one to two years before the I-140 petition stage.
