Membership Options & How Support Works
Hi everyone! I want to share how membership works inside Career Connect International, so you can choose the level of support that fits you best — and change it as your needs change. This community is designed to grow with you. 🔵 Standard Membership — $11/month Best for students who want guidance, structure, and community support. Standard includes: • Full access to the community • Guided courses and practical resources • Weekly prompts, discussions, and peer support • The ability to suggest topics, questions, or challenges you want help with This option is great if you want ongoing support, accountability, and answers — without one-on-one feedback. ✨Right now everyone is free to join! 🟣 Premium Membership — $49/month Best for students who want more personalized, one-on-one support. Premium includes everything in Standard, plus: • One resume formatting review per billing cycle • Two customized resume content updates based on specific job descriptions • A personalized 30-day action plan • Monthly personalized check-ins • Priority consideration for content and topic requests This option is ideal if you want clearer direction, faster feedback, and hands-on guidance. 🔄 Upgrade & Downgrade Flexibility You can upgrade to Premium when you need more one-on-one support, and downgrade back to Standard anytime once you feel confident moving forward on your own. If you need extra support again later, you can always upgrade back to Premium. There’s no pressure to stay in one tier — support is meant to match your season. Final Note No matter which option you choose, you belong here. This community is here to support you with clarity, encouragement, and practical guidance — at your pace. If you’re unsure which membership is right for you, feel free to ask in the comments or send me a message. We’re glad you’re here

New Course Drop: International Student Career Roadmap
One of the biggest challenges for international students is not knowing what to focus on each year — and realizing too late that something important was missed. I just added a new course called International Student Career Roadmap, where I break down: - What your top priorities should be each year of school - What to start early (and what can wait) - Common mistakes and distractions to avoid - How to stay on track for internships, jobs, and long-term career goals This is a clear, simple roadmap you can revisit every year to make sure you’re aligned and intentional — not guessing or reacting last minute. 👉 Check it out in the Classroom and let me know which year you’re currently in. I’d love to hear what stood out to you!

J-1 vs F-1 vs H-1B: What’s the Difference?
If you’re an international student or recent graduate, these are the three visas you’ll hear about the most. This graphic breaks it down visually — here’s the simple explanation behind it: 🎓 F-1 (Student Visa) This is your primary student visa. It allows you to study full-time in the U.S. and work in limited ways through: - CPT (internships during school) - OPT (work after graduation, or sometimes during) 🧳 J-1 (Exchange Visitor Visa) This visa is used for short-term internships, traineeships, and exchange programs, usually sponsored by a third-party organization. It’s common for: - Internships not tied to a U.S. degree - Structured training or cultural exchange programs 💼 H-1B (Work Visa) This is an employer-sponsored work visa for full-time professional roles after graduation. It’s typically used after OPT and is most common in fields like tech, consulting, engineering, healthcare, and finance. ⚠️ Important to know: Each visa has specific rules, timelines, and limitations. What works for one student may not work for another — your major, role, and employer matter. 💬 Let’s talk: Which visa are you currently on, or planning to use next? What’s still confusing for you about visas? Drop your questions below 👇 — chances are someone else is wondering the same thing.
