Re: [LUG] OT: Industrial Placement

[Paul Sutton <zen14920@xxxxxxxxx>]

As you are on a university course you should be eligible for a exchage 
visa J1 for the USA,  If you look up the New york Linux user group 
(which I am also a subscriber too), they have lots of linux basied job 
listings,

http://jobs.nylug.org/

If you contact the group perhaps they can help, they have an irc channel
irc.freenode.net #nylug

I know there are a few exchange programs that sponsor visas so try BUNAC 
etc, details should be available from your university

Good Luck

Paul
