QU on traveling to the US for an interview

Post by Stuart »

Hello all,
I have never gone to the States just for an interview since all my contracts (todate) have been confirmed without a face-to-face meeting. This time though, I am being asked to fly down to meet the employer before they finalize the agreement. I am wondering if there will be any issues with US agents at the airport in Canada if I were to say I was going for an interview? Has anyone had a similar experience? Thanks Stu

The common practice is to have some form of confirmation of the meeting (e-mail or letter), and -- if flying -- a return ticket, short-dated.

Do NOT carry several copies of your resume, nor any paraphenalia extraneous to your interview.
nelsona non grata. Non pro. Please Search previous posts, no situation is unique as you might think. Happy Browsing :D
