Job Roles at Nike
How to Get Visa Sponsorship in Nike H-1B Visa Sponsorship Jobs USA
Target roles in Nike's technology and digital divisions
Nike's investment in direct-to-consumer technology and digital product means software engineering, data science, and platform roles are among the most H-1B-friendly. These departments have historically filed the most petitions relative to other business units.
Highlight specialty occupation fit in your application materials
H-1B approval depends on the role qualifying as a specialty occupation. For Nike, that means framing your resume around the specific degree-to-role connection, whether you're in finance, engineering, supply chain, or advanced analytics.
Use verified sponsorship data when searching for open roles
Not every Nike job listing confirms visa sponsorship. Migrate Mate surfaces verified sponsors so you can filter by real sponsorship history and avoid applying to roles where international candidates are routinely screened out.
Look beyond headquarters when considering Nike opportunities
Nike hires across its Oregon headquarters, distribution centers, and regional offices. H-1B filings span multiple locations, so broadening your geographic search increases your odds of finding an actively sponsoring team with open headcount.
Engage Nike's talent acquisition team early in the process
Recruiters at large fashion and apparel companies manage H-1B sponsorship decisions with legal and HR teams. Raising your visa status early in conversations, not at the offer stage, gives Nike time to assess sponsorship feasibility before you're deep in the process.

Get Access To All JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Nike sponsor H-1B visas?
Yes, Nike sponsors H-1B visas for qualifying roles across its global business. Sponsorship is most common in technology, data engineering, supply chain, and corporate functions. Nike works with immigration counsel to file cap-subject petitions and also sponsors H-1B transfers for candidates already holding H-1B status with another employer.
Which roles and departments at Nike are most likely to receive H-1B sponsorship?
Technology and digital product roles see the highest concentration of H-1B sponsorship at Nike, including software engineers, data scientists, and platform architects. Finance, operations, and supply chain roles also appear in Nike's H-1B filings. Retail-facing or hourly positions are generally not eligible, as H-1B requires a specialty occupation tied to a specific degree field.
How do I navigate the H-1B application process at Nike?
Once Nike extends an offer, its immigration team and outside counsel handle the H-1B petition. Your role is to provide educational credentials, employment history, and any prior immigration documents. Nike files a Labor Condition Application with the Department of Labor first, then submits the I-129 petition to USCIS. The full process typically runs several months from offer to approval.
How do I find Nike H-1B sponsorship jobs that are actively hiring?
Nike's careers page lists open roles, but job postings rarely confirm visa sponsorship directly. Migrate Mate shows verified H-1B sponsorship history by employer so you can identify which Nike roles and locations are realistic targets before investing time in the application process. Filtering by confirmed sponsors significantly improves your search efficiency.
What is the H-1B timeline I should expect if Nike offers me a position?
The H-1B cap registration window opens each March, with USCIS conducting the lottery shortly after. If selected, Nike can file your petition starting April 1 for an October 1 start date. Premium processing is available and reduces USCIS adjudication to roughly 15 business days. If you already hold H-1B status, Nike can file a transfer petition at any time without waiting for the next cap cycle.
What is the prevailing wage for H-1B jobs at Nike?
H-1B employers must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is determined when they file the Labor Condition Application with the Department of Labor. The rate is based on the role, location, and experience level, and ensures international hires are paid comparably to U.S. workers in the same position. You can look up prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the DOL's OFLC Wage Search tool.
