Choose the right perspective
Match the person's employer type to yours, since a staffing or IT services firm filing many petitions a year runs a different program than a product company sponsoring a smaller number of specialists. Also decide whether you need help with day-to-day case management or with program design, policy and vendor selection.

- 03What controls do you use to stay ready for site visits, audits and changes in immigration rules?
