About us
Since 1945, U-Haul has been serving do-it-yourself movers and their households. Like many other successful ventures, the concept for U-Haul was generated out of need. After World War II, there existed the widespread need for do-it-yourself moving equipment that would be available on a one-way, nationwide basis.
U-Haul co-founders L.S. "Sam" Shoen and his wife, Anna Mary Carty Shoen, recognized that need and acted upon it. Their visionary approach spread the cost of ownership among many users, facilitating the mobility of the populations of the U.S. and Canada. The covered wagon of the pioneers morphed into orange U-Haul trailers. In the process, an industry was born.
U-Haul Holding Company and its family of companies, including U-Haul, have strived to create a culture of health and wellness. As of February 1, 2020, and consistent with applicable law, no U-Haul Holding Company or its family of companies will hire individuals in states where it may lawfully decline to hire individuals who use nicotine products (Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia and Washington). This policy will not apply to team members hired before February 1, 2020.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship as a Manager Trainee
Match your credentials to PERM requirements
EB-3 skilled worker requires at least two years of relevant experience. Document your supervisory duties, team size, and training responsibilities in writing before you apply, since PERM requires the employer to prove your qualifications match the job description exactly.
Target employers with PERM filing history
Use Migrate Mate to search Manager Trainee roles by employers with verified green card sponsorship history, so you're applying to companies that have already run the PERM process for this occupation rather than introducing the concept to HR from scratch.
Understand how prevailing wage shapes your offer
Before accepting an offer, check the OFLC Wage Search for the Manager Trainee SOC code in your target metro. PERM requires your employer to pay at least the prevailing wage, so offers below that threshold will stall the filing before it starts.
Ask about priority dates before you sign
If you're a national of India or China, your priority date backlog can stretch for years after the I-140 is approved. Confirm your employer understands this timeline and ask whether they'll maintain your sponsorship through adjustment of status, not just through the PERM stage.
Review the O*NET profile before your interview
PERM ties your sponsorship to a specific job description aligned with your occupation code. Study the O*NET profile for Management Trainee roles so your resume and interview answers reflect the duties your employer will certify to DOL, reducing the risk of an audit.
Clarify portability rights before changing employers
Once your I-485 has been pending 180 days or more, AC21 job portability lets you move to a new employer in the same or similar occupation without restarting the green card process. Confirm your prospective employer accepts this before you resign from your sponsoring company.
Green Card Manager Trainee: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Manager Trainee role qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 green card sponsorship?
Most Manager Trainee positions qualify under EB-3, which covers professionals with a bachelor's degree and skilled workers with at least two years of experience. If the role requires an advanced degree or the employer can demonstrate you have a bachelor's degree plus five years of progressive management experience, EB-2 may apply. Your employer's immigration counsel will confirm the correct category based on the actual job requirements.
How does green card sponsorship for Manager Trainee differ from H-1B sponsorship?
H-1B visa is a temporary nonimmigrant status tied to a specific employer and subject to an annual lottery. Green card sponsorship through EB-2 or EB-3 leads to lawful permanent residence with no renewal cycle. The process is longer: your employer must complete PERM labor certification with the Department of Labor, then file an I-140 petition with USCIS, before you can file for adjustment of status or go through consular processing. There is no lottery, but per-country numerical limits mean nationals of India and China can face significant priority-date backlogs.
What does the PERM process require from my employer?
PERM requires your employer to obtain a prevailing wage determination from OFLC, conduct a formal recruitment test to show no qualified U.S. workers are available, and then file an application with the Department of Labor. The process can take several months before DOL certifies the application. Only after PERM certification can your employer file the I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS on your behalf.
How do I find Manager Trainee employers who already sponsor green cards?
Migrate Mate lists employers with verified green card sponsorship history for Manager Trainee and related management roles, letting you focus your applications on companies that have already navigated the PERM process for this occupation. Approaching employers who have sponsored before shortens the conversation with HR and reduces the chance your offer is rescinded once the costs and timelines become clear.
Can I switch employers after my green card sponsorship is underway?
AC21 job portability lets you change to a new employer in the same or similar occupation once your I-485 adjustment-of-status application has been pending for 180 days or more, without restarting the green card process. Your priority date from the original I-140 approval can also carry over to a new employer's petition. If you change jobs before reaching that 180-day threshold, your employer will need to file a new PERM from the beginning.
