Questions

Which companies hire the most OPT students?

By ICE data, the most students on OPT worked at Amazon.Com Services LLC (10,167), University of California (2,916), Google LLC (2,454), Microsoft Corporation (2,143), Meta Platforms Inc (2,032).

Do I need sponsorship to work on OPT?

No. OPT is work authorization that comes with your F-1 status, so an employer doesn't sponsor it. Employers do need to sponsor you later for an H-1B or a green card.

Which OPT employers also sponsor H1B?

The H1B column on this page shows each employer's H1B approvals in fiscal year 2025. Employers with many approvals are the ones most likely to sponsor you after OPT.

How many unemployment days do I get on OPT?

90 days during the 12-month post-completion OPT, and 150 days in total if you get the 24-month STEM OPT extension.

Where does this OPT employer list come from?

ICE's SEVIS by the Numbers list of the top 200 employers of students on OPT and STEM OPT, matched to each employer's H1B record from USCIS.
