Hi everyone In and architecture student from mexico and I want to apply to some jobs in United States and it’s kid of confusion and I don’t know how I need to start to get information or what kind of documents I need or if my tittle it’s enough to apply or if my title it’s enough. Please someone who can help me?
It’s not easy to find firms willing to pay the added cost of taking on someone who is not already authorized to work in the US. Your best chance is to find a firm with offices in Mexico and the US.
Hmmm I don't think now's a good time, my friend. With the political climate, immigration in the United States has been strict. I have a friend who flew there last month to visit and stay with a relative and just as he was at the door, he got deported right away. Although it was kind of his fault in a way. Immigration saw he had stayed a year prior for 6 months (to visit his cousin), then he returns this time for another 6 months. Ideally if you have a 10-year US Visa you can validly stay for 6 months. But yeah he got deported and he's banned from the US now for 5 years.

"visiting" sure... no one visits their cousins for 6 months at a time.
I have some knowledge about drywall, studd wall, brick, stone and concrete systems. It’s not common use drywall and studd wall system here in mexico it’s more common build with the others systems.

I don't think you understood my comment... it was not intended to be taken literally...
Thank you for your coments, but also I want to know is if with my degree and applying to get my work license or have the certification to be able to work there. It will be easier to apply for a master degree?
see trump and border wall... it's not funny once you need to explain it. With that said, you're likely to see many hurdles given the current backwards views on immigration. You're still just a student so try and get some local experience before moving abroad to the US.
Go south! There's an entire continent where you could make yourself useful and actually be appreciated.

of course you can, an educated professional can make a living anywhere. Not more expensive than LA or NY. I don't want to assume you're asking if you can live like in Akron,OH.

Oops, hit enter mid sentence, lost my train of thoughts...well you get the point, think first episode of Newsroom the auditorium scene.
The best way it to apply at a school or large firm with huge offices and the resources to sponsor your visa. You should get a green card before making the leap.
I’m a Mexican student and I want some answers
Just wanted to compliment you on the title of this thread, that's all I have.
NOWWW
how much do you know about wall construction?
Trumper alert
wrong country Dr.
