Concierge Jobs for OPT Students
Concierge roles in hotels, residential buildings, and private clubs regularly hire OPT students with hospitality, tourism, or service management degrees. Your 12-month OPT window, or 24-month STEM extension if your program qualifies, gives employers a defined authorization period that fits seasonal hiring cycles and entry-level staffing needs in this field.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Concierge Jobs
Target employers enrolled in E-Verify
STEM OPT extensions require your employer to be enrolled in E-Verify. Filter your concierge job search to hotel groups and property management firms that have completed E-Verify enrollment before you accept an offer.
Check prevailing wage before negotiating
Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up wage levels for your specific concierge role by city. Employers filing an LCA must meet the prevailing wage, so knowing Level I and II rates gives you a grounded baseline for offer discussions.
Use Migrate Mate to match with sponsoring employers
Many luxury hotel brands and hospitality groups have H-1B filing histories but don't advertise it in job postings. Use Migrate Mate to surface concierge openings at employers with documented sponsorship records in the hospitality sector.
Request a written training plan for STEM OPT
Your employer must complete a formal training plan on Form I-983 for STEM OPT approval. Ask your hiring manager before signing an offer whether the property has completed this for prior OPT employees and who manages the DSO reporting cycle.

Find Concierge JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does a concierge job qualify for OPT work authorization?
Yes, if your degree is in hospitality management, tourism, hotel administration, or a related field and the concierge role requires that specific education. OPT authorizes work directly related to your major. A general arts or business degree paired with a concierge role may face DSO scrutiny if the connection isn't clearly documented in your job description.
Can I do STEM OPT extension as a concierge?
Only if your degree program carries a STEM-designated Classification of Instructional Programs code. Hospitality management programs are sometimes STEM-designated, but most are not. Check with your DSO and verify your program's CIP code against the DHS STEM list before assuming you qualify for the 24-month extension.
How do I find concierge employers who sponsor visas?
Sponsorship history isn't listed in job postings, but it shows up in DOL LCA disclosure data. Migrate Mate surfaces concierge and hospitality openings at employers with documented H-1B filing records, so you can focus your applications on properties that have already navigated the sponsorship process rather than pitching it cold.
What happens to my OPT if my concierge job ends between contracts or seasons?
OPT allows up to 90 days of unemployment during your authorization period, or 150 days if you've been granted a STEM extension. Seasonal gaps between hotel contracts count against that limit. If you lose your concierge position, your 60-day grace period to find new employment or change status begins when your OPT authorization period ends, not when the job ends.
Does a concierge role at a private club or residential building count the same as a hotel for OPT purposes?
Yes. OPT authorization is tied to your degree field and the nature of the work, not the employer's industry classification. A concierge role at a residential high-rise, private members club, or corporate campus counts as qualifying employment as long as the duties align with your hospitality or service management degree and your DSO documents it accordingly.
