The foreign nationals in this program all have two employers, a nonprofit partner (5 hours per week) and the company seeking to employ them full-time (40 hours per week). During their Fellowship, the nonprofit partner controls the employment of the Fellow and facilitates their work with college and university partners. The Build Fellowship’s education team works with Fellows to scope and launch projects in their field of expertise (STEM/Business) for students at partner schools and the general public. As subject matter experts, the Fellows job is to lead these technical projects and work with participants on a weekly basis. The employment for their full-time employer would be controlled by their full-time employer and the duties involved with their full-time role – the same as you would do for a regular cap-subject H-1B petition.
