Is this for you?
- A US-based tech professional (AI/ML, GenAI, MLOps, Cloud, Data, Software)
- Working with staffing companies on W2 or C2C contracts
- On F-1 OPT, F-1 STEM OPT, H-1B, GC EAD, Green Card, or US Citizen status
- Tired of manually applying to 50+ jobs a day across staffing portals
- You're outside the US
- You only want direct FAANG full-time roles (use LinkedIn for that)
- You're in non-tech fields — this is tuned for IT contractor staffing
W2 vs C2C in plain English
You don't need to know the jargon to use STEM OPT Jobs — but here's what each engagement type means.
- The staffing agency puts you on their payroll.
- They withhold federal + state tax, Social Security, and Medicare.
- You get a W-2 form in January.
- You may get benefits, PTO, 401(k), health insurance.
- Hourly rate is typically 70–80% of the agency's bill rate.
- Your corp invoices the staffing agency.
- You pay your own taxes, insurance, and benefits.
- Higher hourly rate — usually 85–90% of the bill rate.
- You need an EIN, business bank account, and ideally a CPA.
- No corp involved. Agency issues 1099-NEC in January.
- You owe self-employment tax (~15.3%) on top of income tax.
- Less common in IT staffing — but covered when listed.
- You become a permanent W2 employee of the end client, not the agency.
- Salary + equity + benefits, no staffing-agency middleman after placement.
Which engagement types can you legally do?
On OPT, STEM OPT, or H-1B you can't legally invoice as a corp — so C2C is off the table. The agents enforce this so you don't waste submissions.
How it works
Five steps. Then the agents handle the rest.
Check only the engagement types your visa allows. On OPT, STEM OPT or H-1B you can't legally invoice as a corp — so leave C2C unchecked. The agents will skip jobs that don't match.
PDF, DOCX, RTF or TXT — up to 10 MB. Parsing happens on our server. No external AI involved — your resume isn't sent to OpenAI, Anthropic or anyone else. Your profile auto-fills in seconds.
Agents use these to answer knock-out questions on every application: legal name, US phone (get a Google Voice number if needed), email, DOB, city/state/ZIP, work-auth, years of experience, desired W2 and/or C2C rate, earliest availability, LinkedIn URL.
This is the single biggest lever for application quality. Aim for 6–12 specific titles — e.g. AI Engineer · ML Engineer · GenAI Engineer · MLOps Engineer · Applied Scientist · LLM Engineer · AWS ML · Lead AI. Avoid broad terms like "Engineer" or "Developer" that pull in QA, embedded, and network roles.
Hit start. Agents run daily. You don't need to babysit. Every submission lands in your dashboard with job title, direct link, date, board, and filters for today / 7 days / 30 days / custom range. US-only filter is on by default. Deduplication is automatic — same job ID is never submitted twice.
Staffing agencies run E-Verify and I-9 checks. If your resume says one status but your profile says another, you get flagged — and it closes doors permanently. Set it once, set it accurately.
What to do while the agents apply
The agents handle volume. You handle conversion. Here's the playbook.
Contract roles fill in 24–48 hours. A missed call is a lost role.
“Hi, [your name]. I'm an AI Engineer with 4 years building LLM and MLOps pipelines, currently on STEM OPT. I'm looking for W2 roles at $X/hour, available in 2 weeks.” Recruiters screen for fit in under 5 minutes.
W2 hourly: don't go below your current rate minus 10%. C2C: at least 20% above your W2 floor — you cover your own taxes and benefits.
Resume · LinkedIn · 2–3 references. For C2C: corp name, EIN, address, COI. For W2 on visa: visa copy, I-94, I-20 / EAD card scans.
“Thanks for the update — please keep me in mind for similar AI Engineer roles.” It builds your pipeline for the next role.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Mismatched visa status
Resume says "OPT" but your STEM OPT Jobs profile says "USC" — recruiters find out and you lose trust.
- Stale resume
Agents submit whatever you uploaded. Update it the day a project ends.
- Too-broad keywords
"Engineer" matches everything — you get spam calls for QA, embedded, network, and DevOps roles you don't want.
- No US phone number
Many staffing forms reject non-US numbers. Get a free Google Voice number if needed.
- Ignoring the dashboard
If you have zero replies after 500 applications, your resume or keywords are off. Tweak and re-run.
- Unrealistic rates
Asking $90/hr W2 as a 2-year OPT candidate filters you out of every match.
