Target roles that sit at the intersection of strategy and creativity
Known operates across media and entertainment, where sponsored roles tend to blend analytical and creative skill sets. Focus your application on positions where your background bridges both, that's where international candidates tend to stand out.
Position yourself as an E-3 candidate from the start
Known has sponsored the E-3 visa, which is exclusive to Australian citizens. Mention your eligibility early in your cover letter and outreach, it signals low administrative burden and can make the difference when hiring managers are on the fence about sponsorship.
Research Known's client roster before applying
Media and entertainment agencies like Known work with major brand clients. Showing familiarity with the kinds of campaigns and clients they handle demonstrates genuine interest, and gives you a concrete hook in interviews beyond 'I want to work in the U.S.'
Look for roles in data, strategy, and audience insights
Sponsorship in media companies often flows toward specialists with quantifiable expertise. Roles in analytics, audience strategy, and media planning tend to carry clearer degree-to-job alignment, which strengthens the E-3 specialty occupation case for your application.
Use a platform that filters by actual sponsorship history
Not every media company that claims to be 'open to sponsorship' has a track record to back it up. Migrate Mate surfaces verified sponsors so you can filter by real sponsorship history, saving time on companies unlikely to follow through.
Engage with Known's work before reaching out
Smaller-volume sponsors in media and entertainment respond well to candidates who clearly understand their work. Reference specific campaigns or thought leadership in your outreach, it demonstrates cultural fit and reduces the perceived risk of sponsoring an international hire.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Known sponsor H-1B visas?
Based on available sponsorship data, Known has not filed H-1B visa petitions in recent periods. Its sponsorship activity has focused on the E-3 visa, which is available exclusively to Australian citizens. If you're not Australian, Known may not be a strong fit for visa sponsorship at this time, but it's worth monitoring as hiring needs evolve.
What visa types does Known sponsor?
Known's sponsorship history is centered on the E-3 visa, a nonimmigrant work visa available only to Australian nationals. It requires employer support, a certified Labor Condition Application, and a qualifying specialty occupation role. Australian candidates in media, strategy, or analytics are best positioned to pursue E-3 sponsorship at Known.
Which roles or departments at Known are most likely to receive visa sponsorship?
Media and entertainment companies tend to sponsor roles that require specialized, degree-aligned expertise, think audience strategy, media analytics, brand planning, and digital marketing. At Known, candidates in data-driven or strategically focused roles are more likely to meet the specialty occupation threshold required for E-3 sponsorship than generalist or junior creative positions.
How do I find open roles at Known that include visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is the most efficient way to find roles at verified sponsors like Known. It filters job listings by actual sponsorship history rather than self-reported willingness, so you're only seeing companies with a documented track record. Search by visa type to narrow results to E-3 eligible positions specifically relevant to your background.
How do I approach the application process at Known as a visa-sponsored candidate?
Lead your application with clarity about your E-3 eligibility, most hiring managers at media companies are unfamiliar with the visa but are receptive once they understand it doesn't require lottery participation. Align your experience to Known's blend of creative and strategic work, and be prepared to walk through the sponsorship process simply and confidently if asked in interviews.
