I have a question for you all,

If you dont already know its bloody hard to move to America as a foreigner unless you have family, married an american or get a job transfer to an American Company. And im looking at the latter

So: Does anyone know of any companies that have places in Wisconsin but also a place in the UK where i can start and try and get transferred?

My current plans are to try and get back into Caterpillar and try and transfer to Illnois....but its just not Wisconsin!

Thanks for you help

With the stories about lay-offs and what not that I've heared around these forums, I think that it might be hard to find a job over there currently. Especially as a foreigner.

Then again, I don't live anywhere close to Wisconsin, so there should be someone else here who can help you a lot more than I can.

My father's company, Chart Industries  has (or had) a branch in Wolverhampton. If you have any interest in cryogenics, that might be the ticket for you.

Northwestern Mutual.

If you're really serious I'll find out about a company in Green Bay, they are based in Germany. A number of Germans come over to work there. To work, though, not to be in Green Bay. 🙂

Well im training to be a IT Systems Analyst. But i will definatly look into Chart Industries....

The problem with Northwestern Mutual is that when i worked at Caterpillar on my placement year from college.....my German is none existant! But if it gets me to GB then always worth a punt

Cough - wasnt easy to come to harry potter land here either; only way its easy if you come from a old english coloney or are from europe, africa etc ...

Didnt they used to have a caterpillar plant in racine WI? ... How about applying for some big jobs in the states and looking for them to sponsor you like I did here (UK) (not sure the rules in the states thou).

Well, John Deere has facilities in Wisconsin and Iowa. The global headquarters for Trane Company is in La Crosse as well. And of course there is S.C. Johnson Wax Company in Racine.

sorry to break it to ya but caterpillar is laying off people left & right here in illinois. i live where their major headquarters are - not very good job prospect for you at this time. they're actively moving alot of production to mexico. but if you're an IT geek, you might have a chance. check out their website for employment & see if they have anything for you.

good luck! 😃
