2026 Mongolian Job Search Roundtable

For Immigrants & International Professionals in the U.S.

Looking for a job in the U.S. as an immigrant can feel overwhelming — not because you lack talent, but because the system is unfamiliar.

The 2026 Job Search Roundtable is a monthly, community-based program designed to help immigrants and international professionals understand the U.S. job market, overcome common barriers, and build long-term career success.

Each month focuses on one real challenge immigrants face, building step by step from confusion to confidence, from job search to workplace success — and beyond.

• Navigating visa and work authorization challenges
• Negotiating salary and understanding U.S. compensation
