TransUnion's Internal Job Title: Sr Analyst, Solutions Consulting
How to Get Visa Sponsorship as a Solutions Consultant
Clarify your STEM OPT eligibility early
If your degree is in engineering, computer science, or a related STEM field, you may qualify for a 24-month STEM OPT extension. Confirming this upfront gives employers a longer hiring runway and makes you a lower-risk candidate to sponsor.
Lead with technical depth, not just communication skills
Solutions Consultants are hired for their ability to understand complex products and explain them credibly. Demonstrating hands-on technical knowledge in interviews signals you can handle the role without a lengthy ramp-up period.
Address OPT status directly and confidently
Employers often hesitate because they misunderstand OPT timelines. Prepare a clear, one-sentence explanation of your work authorization status, your OPT end date, and whether a STEM extension is available. Confidence here reduces friction.
Prioritize enterprise software and SaaS companies
Large SaaS and enterprise technology firms hire Solutions Consultants at volume and have established immigration programs. These companies sponsor H-1B petitions routinely, which means your OPT-to-sponsorship conversation is more likely to follow a known internal process.
Negotiate sponsorship terms before accepting an offer
Confirm in writing that the employer will support H-1B sponsorship before your OPT expires. Ask specifically about their timeline for filing and whether they cover legal fees. This protects you from discovering sponsorship issues after you have already started.

Get Access To All JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Can I work as a Solutions Consultant on F-1 OPT?
Yes. Solutions Consultant roles qualify as professional employment under F-1 OPT because they directly apply knowledge from fields like computer science, engineering, or business. Your work must be related to your degree field to remain compliant with OPT authorization requirements. If your degree is STEM-eligible, you may also qualify for a 24-month extension beyond your initial 12-month OPT period.
Do Solutions Consultant roles typically lead to H-1B sponsorship?
Many do, particularly at mid-size and large SaaS, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise software companies. Solutions Consultant is a technical client-facing role that sits on the specialty occupation spectrum, which generally satisfies H-1B eligibility criteria. Sponsorship likelihood increases significantly at companies that already have immigration programs in place. Migrate Mate filters jobs by sponsorship history, making it easier to identify which employers are realistic options.
Does a Solutions Consultant role qualify for STEM OPT extension?
It depends on your degree, not the job title. If your degree is in a STEM-designated field such as computer science, information systems, or engineering, and your Solutions Consultant role applies that knowledge directly, you are likely eligible for the 24-month STEM OPT extension. Your DSO must approve the extension, and your employer must be enrolled in E-Verify. Confirm your degree's CIP code with your international student office.
What should I say when an employer asks about my work authorization status?
Be direct and specific. State that you are authorized to work on F-1 OPT, include your OPT end date, and mention whether you qualify for a STEM extension. If you do qualify, note that the extension provides up to 24 additional months of work authorization. Framing this clearly removes ambiguity and helps hiring managers understand your actual timeline rather than assuming the worst-case scenario.
How technical does a Solutions Consultant role need to be to qualify under my STEM degree?
The role does not need to be purely technical, but there must be a clear, direct connection between your degree field and the work you are performing. Solutions Consultants who demonstrate, implement, or advise on technical products using domain knowledge from a STEM field generally satisfy this requirement. Roles that are primarily sales or account management with minimal technical application may present compliance risk. Review the job description carefully and discuss it with your DSO if there is any ambiguity.
