How to find peer review opportunities (for EB-1A and O-1)
About me:
My name is Jason and I work with top immigration lawyers on educational resources related EB-1A, EB-2 NIW, and O-1. Most of the profile-building insights I share in this newsletter come from my work with these lawyers.
As a paid subscriber to this newsletter, you get access to:
My EB-1A/EB-2 NIW/O-1 profile-building opportunities database (300+ opportunities so far, updated every 2-3 days). Once you become a paid subscriber, I will share this spreadsheet with you.
My private EB-1A/EB-2 NIW/O-1 profile-building group (link below, you will also get access to the newsletter chat). Members have been able to:
Land speaking opportunities.
Land peer review and other judging opportunities (through a university contact listed in my newsletter resources and through peer reviewer members of my private group).
Find co-authors for papers.
Get in touch with reporters.
Find independent references.
Get involved in top member organizations in their field.
Work with other profile-builders.
Judge hackathons.
My contacts database (these are universities, event organizers, and people involved in relevant organizations that I have spoken to, you can mention my name if you decide to reach out to them). Also, next week, I will be speaking to someone who has won six hackathons to see if he can share insights on how to land hackathon judging opportunities.
Video resources (recorded question and answer-style videos with EB-1A recipients, recordings of my EB-1A profile-building office hours), my guides to EB-1A and EB-2 NIW profile-building, and my reviews of AAO decisions (which go into USCIS’s reasoning for denying an EB-1A/O-1 petition). I review both EB-1A and O-1 decisions.
Once you become a paid subscriber, I will share all of the above resources with you via Google Drive (links below).
In the past month, I have spoken to:
An academic who actively peer reviews for top conferences and journals in his field.
Someone who was able to get an opportunity to present at an ACM conference through a professor who works with his company.
Here are some insights on how to find peer review opportunities.
