Why STEM OPT Candidates Should Be Applying on Dice Instead of LinkedIn

Dice is one of the few job platforms where companies and staffing agencies actively post roles that are open to OPT and STEM OPT candidates — and many listings specifically mention visa sponsorship or work authorization accepted which saves you from guessing. Most of the companies and staffing agencies posting on Dice are already familiar with work authorization requirements, E-Verify, and what it means to hire someone on an EAD. Instead of mass applying on LinkedIn and hearing nothing back, spending that same time on Dice puts your resume in front of recruiters who are already looking for candidates with your exact profile. If you are on STEM OPT and you have not set up your Dice profile yet that is the first thing you should do today.
