I am looking to work in America for the summer but at the moment I am on exchange and will not be able to make it home to do the American embassy interview to get a j1. Does anyone know if there is a way around this? Such as doing an interview in a foreign embassy? I have tried emailing but haven't got much responses. Alternatively, does anyone know of anyone who managed to find work without a visa? Is this difficult? Any help would be great!
