Job Interview Question & Answer: Are You Legally Authorized To Work In The United States? |
|
|
|
How to Answer the Question:
To legally be hired for most jobs in the United States, you must meet a certain set of criteria based on age and citizenship status. Be honest. If you are waiting on a work permit, tell the interviewer. If you are a legal resident of the U.S., say this during the interview process. You cannot draw unemployment and be employed in the U.S.
If you lie about your work authorization status, you may face jail time or deportation, depending on the circumstances preventing you from legally working. This is not the time to discuss felony convictions, unless said convictions directly relates to the position applied for (Example: convicted pederasts can’t legally work any jobs involving the education or care of children).
