You are so obsessed in trying to invent angles to seek work in the US that buried in one of your posts was a kernel of perhaps the only remotely likely route to the US for you - that you should seek out British or European companies that might want someone to send to the US to manage HR in their US operation.

IMO that is massively more likely than any US employer hiring a foreigner to work in the domestic US HR department. .... Haven't you even stopped to think how daft an idea that sounds?

His singular obsession with getting to the US via some totally unrealistic means coupled with his inability to accept reality clearly demonstrates that he is bipolar and currently manic.

I pity his wife - who, as it turns out, may be his ticket to the US... but he doesn't actually realize it yet.

Have a read on here to get a feel for the US job market, particularly for older workers: Work and Employment Forum - Jobs, employers, employees, hiring, resumes, occupations, government, laws, unions, contracts, workers, part-time - City-Data Forum

The best working assumption is that if you're director-level in a large corporate and get laid off once mid-50s or older, it will be nigh on impossible to match that level of job or income again. The safest way to plan a career in a corporate environment here is to financially plan that you won't be working much past 55; you'd want to be set up so that you could get a few contract roles if lucky, and use savings to gap fill the years until the pensions kick in.

Non-standard qualifications or experiences are also very, very tedious to job hunt with, as my husband found last year. Many of the online application forms are impossible to complete with addresses that don't include a zip code, or a degree that doesn't have a GPA. There is often simply no way to proceed to the next screen.
