Working in NYC as a bartender from the UK
Hi everyone,
I'm looking for some advice. I'm a 32 year old bartender in London who wants to move to New York to live and work.
Now I know that it's apparently not legally possible to work in the states without the appropriate visa, which one would have to obtain via being sponsored by a company.
My question is, is it possible for me to go to NYC on a tourist visa, look for work as a bartender and then have them sponsor me?
I know bartending is not in the specialist occupation category, but my experience is vast and I always have huge interest from prospective employers here in the UK.
Has anyone reading this done this sort of thing before? Would the owners of some bars be willing to sponsor me considering my experience is so good? What are my options?
Thanks in advance

The answers would be the same as the last time you asked.
Can I bartend in USA or Canada without the required visa?
