As a french from centrale lille who already worked as an intern in San Diego your story is frightening.&lt;p&gt;I have a new intern offer in San Diego (I love this city) with a very good possibility of being hired after. Hope I will get my HB1 but if not I won&amp;#x27;t mind cheating like Indians.&lt;p&gt;Easiest way to get a green card is getting maried. As a french you should have used your French bonus of +5 attractiveness with girls :P&lt;p&gt;H1B game is fucked up for europeans anyway.</text></comment>
