Requires Bachelor’s degree in English, Journalism or other writing-oriented discipline. Immigration experience preferred, but not absolutely required. No travel or language fluency requirement other than English.
We’re primarily a business immigration firm with some family-based immigration work (we don’t handle asylum, removal work, etc.) We offer a competitive salary of $55,000-$65,000 depending on experience and qualifications, paid time off, and firm-paid health insurance, and a 401(k). 40 hrs/week, M-F. We're small, but have been around over 20 years.
We are, as a rule, a full-time in-office practice. We do have the ability to work remotely when needed, and can often be flexible on occasional remote work. However, the job is best handled primarily in-office because of the ongoing need to handle physical documents for package assembly, filing, etc. As USCIS [finally] transitions to online filing, we’re hoping that we can be even more flexible in the future.
Please respond with cover letter, resume, and writing sample.
