📌 Important Program Information

This opportunity is part of the U.S. J-1 Cultural Exchange Program and is not a free job placement.

Participants are responsible for a J-1 program fee covering:

• Visa sponsorship (DS-2019)

• Medical insurance

• Placement coordination

• Embassy preparation

• Pre-departure support

• Ongoing participant support during the program

Typical program fees:

• 12-Month Program: approximately $3,745

• 6-Month Program: approximately $3,095

Additional costs include:

• SEVIS Fee

• U.S. Embassy Appointment Fee

• Flights and personal expenses

💡 For this specific host site, part of the program fee is financially supported by the employer.

The host advances approximately $1,825 of the sponsorship/program cost upfront to assist selected candidates with the initial process. This amount is then gradually repaid by the participant through small weekly payroll deductions after arrival in the United States.

This can significantly reduce the upfront financial requirement for qualified candidates.

Applicants should still be financially prepared for remaining visa, travel, and initial relocation costs before applying.

Shortlisted candidates will complete a live screening interview with Training 4 Hospitality before being presented to the host employer.

⚠️ Limited openings available. Interviews taking place weekly.

We are looking for motivated hospitality and culinary candidates who are serious about developing long-term international careers within the hospitality industry.
