FENDI
MAISON
The Fendi Maison was established by Adele and Edoardo Fendi in Rome in 1925. The opening of the first Fendi boutique – a handbag shop and fur workshop followed. Soon winning international acclaim, Fendi emerged as a brand renowned for its elegance, craftsmanship, innovation and style.
Called by the legendary five Fendi sisters, the collaboration with the late Karl Lagerfeld began back in 1965 and lasted 54 years. In 1992, Silvia Venturini Fendi seconded him in the Artistic Direction; in 1994, she is given the direction of Accessories and later of Menswear.
In 2000, the LVMH group acquires Fendi becoming in 2001 its majority shareholder. Appointed in 2020, Kim Jones held the role of Artistic Director of Couture and Womenswear until 2024.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship in Private Client Advisor
Verify your degree supports specialty occupation
USCIS requires your bachelor's degree to directly relate to Private Client Advisor duties. A degree in finance, economics, or business administration strengthens your petition. A general studies degree may trigger a Request for Evidence.
Search LCA filings by occupation code
Use the OFLC Wage Search to find employers who have filed Labor Condition Applications under financial advisor or wealth management SOC codes. This confirms active H-1B sponsorship history before you apply, saving time on dead-end applications.
Target cap-exempt employers strategically
Some nonprofit endowments and university investment offices hire Private Client Advisors and qualify as cap-exempt H-1B employers, bypassing the annual lottery entirely. Check whether an institution's primary mission is education or research before pursuing that route.
Find sponsoring employers on Migrate Mate
Filter Private Client Advisor roles by verified H-1B filing history on Migrate Mate. This surfaces employers whose DOL filings confirm they sponsor the specific occupation, so your applications focus on realistic opportunities from the start.
Align your job title to USCIS-recognized occupation definitions
Check the O*NET profile for Personal Financial Advisors to confirm your offered role matches the specialty occupation definition USCIS expects. A misaligned job description is a common denial trigger in financial services petitions.
Start the LCA process before accepting an offer deadline
DOL must certify the LCA before your employer can file Form I-129 with USCIS. DOL targets seven business days for certification, but delays happen. Build that window into any start-date negotiation so your timeline doesn't collapse at the final step.
H-1B Visa Private Client Advisor: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Private Client Advisor role qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
Yes, Private Client Advisor positions generally qualify because USCIS recognizes financial advisory roles as requiring at least a bachelor's degree in finance, economics, accounting, or a directly related field. The key is that your employer's job description must specify a degree requirement, not just prefer one. A role that accepts any bachelor's degree regardless of field can face specialty occupation challenges.
Which types of employers sponsor H-1B visas for Private Client Advisors?
Large wealth management firms, private banks, trust companies, and family offices are the most active H-1B sponsors for this role. Boutique registered investment advisors sponsor less frequently but do file when they need specialized talent. You can identify employers with verified filing history by searching Private Client Advisor roles on Migrate Mate, which surfaces DOL Labor Condition Application data by occupation.
How does the H-1B lottery affect Private Client Advisor job seekers?
Most Private Client Advisor positions fall under cap-subject H-1B, meaning your petition enters the annual lottery with roughly 85,000 slots available. Registrations open in March for an October 1 start date. If you're not selected, some employers will explore cap-exempt placements through affiliated nonprofits, or you may need to target employers with concurrent cap-exempt sponsorship arrangements.
What prevailing wage level applies to Private Client Advisor H-1B petitions?
Your employer must pay at least the DOL prevailing wage for the relevant SOC code in the work location, typically under Personal Financial Advisors or a closely related category. The wage level depends on your experience and the complexity of duties. Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up current wage levels by occupation and geographic area before evaluating any offer.
Can a Private Client Advisor on H-1B change employers mid-status?
Yes, H-1B portability allows you to start working for a new employer once that employer files a new H-1B transfer petition, as long as you've been maintaining valid status. Your new employer files a fresh Labor Condition Application and Form I-129. You don't need to wait for USCIS approval to start, but the petition must be pending. Notify your current employer according to your contract terms.
