I run a coffee meetup in Buffalo, NY. Around graduation season we get a lot of international students who come and are looking for jobs but are worried about visa issues. What are the resources about what their actual situation is, and how I can help connect them to smaller companies who might not know how to sponsor students?

Alum here, most of the international students I knew got a job on campus to get their paperwork done and then you can use it elsewhere.

I'd recommend inviting a local immigration attorney to speak to the group and/or be available to answer questions because there's no one great resource.
