Questions

Which companies hire STEM OPT students?

By ICE data, the most students on STEM OPT worked at Amazon.Com Services LLC (6,679), Google LLC (1,778), Microsoft Corporation (1,496), Meta Platforms Inc (1,302), University of California (1,278).

Does a STEM OPT employer have to use E-Verify?

Yes. To employ you on the 24-month STEM OPT extension, the employer must be enrolled in E-Verify and in good standing, and it must sign your I-983 training plan.

How do I check if a company is in E-Verify?

Search the employer on ProfilePush (each employer's page shows its E-Verify status) or in the official E-Verify employer search on e-verify.gov.

Can I work for a staffing company or on C2C on STEM OPT?

Only if there's a real employer-employee relationship and the employer itself trains and supervises you under the I-983 plan. Corp-to-corp setups generally don't qualify.

Where does this STEM OPT list come from?
