ABOUT THE ROLE:
S&P Global Market Intelligence is seeking highly motivated graduate students to join the Advisory Services team as Economic Consulting Interns. This internship provides an opportunity to work at the intersection of economic research, policy analysis, and consulting.
Interns will support project teams across a range of economic consulting engagements, including macroeconomic analysis, policy impact assessments, sector studies, economic modeling, and strategic advisory work for public- and private-sector clients.
THE TEAM:
The Global Insight (GI) group, within S&P Global’s Market Intelligence division, supports clients across all government and private sectors with data and research on macroeconomics, markets, trade, supply chains, geopolitics, and operational risk. GI’s services consist of subscriptions to data/analysis products and consulting. This role is in the consulting team. The team designs and delivers custom analytical solutions for client requirements that are not met by subscription products. These custom solutions typically integrate datasets, deploy specialized models, and/or develop new approaches to deliver unique insights to support clients in their strategic decisions. Whereas most major consultancies rely on large teams to provide value, our team is fortunate to draw on an unparalleled breadth of data, research, expertise, and models to solve client problems, and support planning and decision-making. These proprietary assets are the result of decades of development and proven value.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding J-1 Visa Sponsorship in Service Advisor
Document your automotive training background thoroughly
J-1 Trainee eligibility requires at least one year of post-secondary education or work experience in your field abroad. Compile transcripts, employer letters, and technical certifications that directly tie your background to automotive service operations before approaching any host employer.
Target dealership groups with multi-state service operations
Large dealership networks are more likely to have HR infrastructure capable of coordinating with a designated J-1 sponsor organization. Search for host employers on Migrate Mate, which filters roles by J-1 sponsorship alignment so you can skip operators with no exchange visitor history.
Verify the host employer meets E-Verify requirements
Most designated J-1 sponsors require your host employer to be enrolled in E-Verify before issuing a DS-2019. Confirm enrollment status with the employer directly during initial conversations, not after you have a verbal offer, to avoid delays.
Build a training plan that satisfies DOL program objectives
Your J-1 Training Plan must outline specific skills you will gain that are unavailable in your home country. For Service Advisors, this typically includes U.S.-specific manufacturer warranty claim procedures, diagnostic software systems, and customer service compliance standards tied to domestic consumer protection rules.
Clarify the two-year home residency requirement early
Some J-1 participants are subject to a two-year home-country physical presence requirement before changing to most other visa categories. Your DS-2019 will indicate whether the requirement applies, so review it with your designated sponsor before accepting a training placement.
Confirm wage compliance with OFLC Wage Search before accepting an offer
The host employer must pay you at least the prevailing wage for your role and location. Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up the Service Advisor wage level for the specific metropolitan area, then confirm the offer meets or exceeds that figure before your designated sponsor finalizes the DS-2019.

Find Service Advisor JobsService Advisor J-1 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Which J-1 program category applies to Service Advisor positions?
Most Service Advisor candidates qualify under either the J-1 Intern or J-1 Trainee category. Intern applies if you are currently enrolled in a degree program or graduated within the past 12 months. Trainee applies if you have at least one year of relevant post-secondary education or work experience in automotive or customer service fields and are pursuing structured skill development unavailable in your home country.
Who actually sponsors the J-1 visa for a Service Advisor role?
The visa sponsor is a U.S. Department of State-designated organization, such as Cultural Vistas or AIPT, not the dealership or repair facility where you work. The employer is the host organization. The designated sponsor reviews your training plan, issues the DS-2019 form, and monitors your program compliance throughout your stay. The host employer does not hold sponsorship authority.
How do I find dealerships or auto service employers open to J-1 exchange visitors?
Use Migrate Mate to search for Service Advisor roles filtered by J-1 sponsorship compatibility. Many host employers in the automotive sector do not advertise their willingness to work with J-1 programs publicly, so a targeted search saves significant time. Once you identify a potential host, confirm directly that they are willing to coordinate with a designated sponsor organization before advancing.
What documents do I need before a host employer can submit a J-1 training plan?
You will need academic transcripts or employment records proving relevant field experience, a valid passport, a completed DS-7002 Training and Internship Placement Plan signed by both you and the host employer, and a letter from the employer confirming the training objectives. Your designated sponsor will also require proof that the host is enrolled in E-Verify in most cases.
Can a J-1 Service Advisor trainee transition to a work visa after the program ends?
It depends on whether the two-year home-country physical presence requirement applies to your DS-2019. If it does, you must return home for two years before switching to most nonimmigrant work categories such as H-1B or E-3, unless you obtain a waiver. If the requirement does not apply, you may be eligible to change status from within the United States after your J-1 program concludes. Review this with Migrate Mate or your designated sponsor before planning any transition.
