Download or read book An Immigrant s Guide to Making It in America written by Virgilia Kaur Pruthi and published by . This book was released on 2014-02-03 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immigration has always been part of the fabric of America's history and its future. However, the emphasis on high-skilled workers-today's foreign graduates at US universities with advanced degrees in science, technology, engineering, and math-is a fairly new phenomenon. The effects of "reverse brain drain" are becoming increasingly common, as professionals have begun taking knowledge and skills they've learned in America back to their home countries. Policymakers are realizing that foreign students are not only a major pipeline to innovators, but are also the catalysts behind the growth of new ideas and capital. In An Immigrant's Guide to Making It in America, Virgilia Kaur Pruthi reveals why this is the best time in modern US history for young immigrants to begin making their mark by highlighting the stories of a diverse set of those who've made it in America. Filled with practical advice on how to navigate the immigration system and tip for adjusting to US culture and understanding the visa process, the book gives readers the knowledge they need to succeed. An Immigrant's Guide to Making It in America presents a complicated process in an accessible format and is useful for the recently immigrated as it is for those long in the United States, looking for inspiration in the stories of their new peers. "I wrote this book for those looking to understand what it takes to succeed in America," Kaur Pruthi writes. "It is meant to follow you through your time as a student, a job-seeker, a family-starter, and a hopeful candidate for a green card and citizenship. It also tells the stories of immigrants who came to America, each motivated by unique aspirations. I aim to demystify the current immigration terminology while sharing tips on how to succeed in America from those who have been through the process." In chapters that detail the various issues for immigrants and naturalized citizens to understand Kaur Pruthi covers such topic as: The Current State looks at the evolution of immigration in America and takes a look at some of the hard statistics that shape our nation's diversity and education system. The People highlights the stories of more than thirty-five immigrants who hail from more than thirty countries and possess an extremely diverse set of professional backgrounds. They share their most honest advice and their stories are divided into the most common traits immigrants exude, including the bridging the gap between two cultures, getting comfortable with networking and building relationships, being open to the unknown, setting clear goals in life and remaining focused, and being confident of their own willpower and forward-thinking despite any barriers. The Skills lists the necessary skills people should be aware of and utilize in order to grow and succeed in any profession. The Real Answers addresses the most frequently asked questions posed by immigrants when moving, working, and continuing a life in America. The States details the demographics, trends toward immigrants and employment outlook of all fifty states. Resources highlights organizations in America that are doing incredible work for immigrants that individuals coming to this country should feel comfortable in approaching if in need while The Glossary is meant to translate the bureaucratic terminology, from A-Number to Visa Waiver, it's your portable dictionary to immigration. "I would love for my readers to take apart this book by extracting the information that is most important to them at a certain stage in life," Kaur Pruthi writes. "My aim is to make information about immigration and visas more accessible and clear without getting blindsided by politics. I hope that what you learn about the immigration system in this book will help you stay positive, patient, and courageous throughout your journey in the United States."

Download or read book A Beginner s Guide to America written by Roya Hakakian and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2022-01-25 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stirring, witty, and poignant glimpse into the bewildering American immigrant experience from someone who has lived it. Hakakian's "love letter to the nation that took her in [is also] a timely reminder of what millions of human beings endure when they uproot their lives to become Americans by choice" (The Boston Globe). Into the maelstrom of unprecedented contemporary debates about immigrants in the United States, this perfectly timed book gives us a portrait of what the new immigrant experience in America is really like. Written as a "guide" for the newly arrived, and providing "practical information and advice," Roya Hakakian, an immigrant herself, reveals what those who settle here love about the country, what they miss about their homes, the cruelty of some Americans, and the unceasing generosity of others. She captures the texture of life in a new place in all its complexity, laying bare both its beauty and its darkness as she discusses race, sex, love, death, consumerism, and what it is like to be from a country that is in America's crosshairs. Her tenderly perceptive and surprisingly humorous account invites us to see ourselves as we appear to others, making it possible for us to rediscover our many American gifts through the perspective of the outsider. In shattering myths and embracing painful contradictions that are unique to this place, A Beginner's Guide to America is Hakakian's candid love letter to America.

Download or read book America Explained A Guide for Indian Immigrants written by Allison Singh and published by Allison Singh Books. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America is a confusing place, especially today. In America Explained: A Guide for Indian Immigrants, Allison Singh draws upon interviews with Indian immigrants and her own experience to answer practical and complex questions about America. For example, if America is a land of immigrants, how could anyone be anti-immigrant? How do I know what is offensive to others? How do I give my children Indian culture in America? How is Donald Trump different from past U.S. presidents? What should I expect as a minority in America? Why are there so many mass shootings in America? How are gender roles, the workplace, schools, parents, medicine, business, finance and government different in America than India? Allison discusses common questions immigrants share, as well as those they might not know to ask. The book has two goals. First, to provide immigrants with information they need to be comfortable, confident and successful in America. Second, to remind them that America is a land of immigrants just like them, and they are still welcome here.

Download or read book My Underground American Dream written by Julissa Arce and published by Center Street. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A National Bestseller! What does an undocumented immigrant look like? What kind of family must she come from? How could she get into this country? What is the true price she must pay to remain in the United States? JULISSA ARCE knows firsthand that the most common, preconceived answers to those questions are sometimes far too simple-and often just plain wrong. On the surface, Arce's story reads like a how-to manual for achieving the American dream: growing up in an apartment on the outskirts of San Antonio, she worked tirelessly, achieved academic excellence, and landed a coveted job on Wall Street, complete with a six-figure salary. The level of professional and financial success that she achieved was the very definition of the American dream. But in this brave new memoir, Arce digs deep to reveal the physical, financial, and emotional costs of the stunning secret that she, like many other high-achieving, successful individuals in the United States, had been forced to keep not only from her bosses, but even from her closest friends. From the time she was brought to this country by her hardworking parents as a child, Arce-the scholarship winner, the honors college graduate, the young woman who climbed the ladder to become a vice president at Goldman Sachs-had secretly lived as an undocumented immigrant. In this surprising, at times heart-wrenching, but always inspirational personal story of struggle, grief, and ultimate redemption, Arce takes readers deep into the little-understood world of a generation of undocumented immigrants in the United States today- people who live next door, sit in your classrooms, work in the same office, and may very well be your boss. By opening up about the story of her successes, her heartbreaks, and her long-fought journey to emerge from the shadows and become an American citizen, Arce shows us the true cost of achieving the American dream-from the perspective of a woman who had to scale unseen and unimaginable walls to get there.

Twenty thematic essays address such topics as immigration law and policy, refugees, unauthorized migrants, racial and ethnic identity, assimilation, nationalization, economy, politics, religion, education, and family relations. These are followed by comprehensive articles on immigration from the thirty most significant nations or regions of origin. Based on the latest U.S. Census data and the most recent scholarly research, The New Americans is an essential reference for students, scholars, and anyone curious about the changing face of America.

Download or read book An Immigrant s Guide to Living in America written by Shola Agbebi and published by Skiai Enterprises. This book was released on 2019-03-17 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is inspired by my personal experience of living in the United states of America (commonly referred to as America, and/or USA) as a legal immigrant from Nigeria. This book basically is a guide to living in America, written by an "experienced" immigrant to a "newcomer" or "rookie" immigrant. the book gives you a comprehensive basic knowledge of America, and of living in America. By the time you are done with this book, you would have learned some basic but very important things about America and found some new confidence living in your new country.This book serves a guide to people coming to America as immigrants (permanent residents), and non-immigrants planning to stay for an extended period, for example, students. It can also be utilized by illegal immigrants, (I probably shouldn't say that, but it's true, that's the reality we live in now), however the target audience for this guide are legal immigrants to the USA. In addition, this guide would make an interesting read for other "experienced" immigrants, green card holders, and to all citizens of the USA.When I came to the USA, now my home, nobody gave me a comprehensive guide, I wish I had some guidance. What I had were tit bits, hearsays, myths, half-hearted advices, and basically had to live and learn from experience (which is the best teacher). Failing, falling, making mistakes, picking myself up, correcting myself, and through self-motivation, and self-education, now I am "soaring on wings like the eagle." Glory to God Almighty! Can I just say here, that falling, or failing is not a problem; it is what you do after falling that may result into a problem or result into a sure path toward success. Word!!This book (or guide) reflects my personality; down to earth, humble, no hype, straight shooting, honest, humorous, bold, and full of courage, among other winning qualities. Lol. The contents of this book are sincere, and I don't wish you to make mistakes others made (including my humble self) and trust me they can be costly. You don't have to make these same mistakes, so my sincere wish is that the contents of this book will help jump start your new life in America, and help you make the right decisions, the first time, all the time. In essence hit the ground running.

Book excerpt: If you are a new immigrant minority residing in the United States of America or Canada, you might have unfathomable questions, inexplicable problems, and inhibiting challenges that you wish someone could shed some light on. Have you ever wished if someone could tell you about how Americans think? Have you ever wondered about the psychology of the people you are dealing with here in the US? Do you want to know the psychology of the American people as seen from the eyes and minds of new immigrants to the nation?

What about saving and growing your hard-earned money? As a new immigrant, do you usually think about how you can upgrade your understanding of money and its mechanics? Have you ever wished if someone can show you how to manage your devilish and uncontrollable expenses? What other questions, problems, and challenges do you have as a new immigrant? Your questions were our questions too when we first came to the US. So were your problems and challenges. Exactly like you we were in a live or die situation at bottom of the ocean floor. We learned to swim on the go to the surface. Nobody taught us how to be confident and proud immigrants. Nobody showed us the way to stand up for ourselves and be more assertive for what we believe in. Nobody does. And when we wanted to open a business, there were no tips, advices, guidelines or books that genuinely target new immigrants. We didn't receive any advice on how to be successful immigrants and businessmen. Nobody told us which school to go to or what kind of degrees we should get. Nobody does. And as a result we found ourselves in a ton of debt pursuing an education that doesn't promise a better pay upon graduation. Yes, we understand and share your questions, problems and challenges. We are not like the nationals, the citizens, or the long-assimilated immigrants who might have the heart to help us, but lack the experience to empathize with us. We are new immigrants with the same issues like you and with the desire to share with you some practical answers, tips, and solutions to your most pressing questions, problems, and challenges that you and other fellow new immigrants face. In "How to Survive and Thrive as New Immigrants in the United States of America", we will assist you to answer most of your taxing questions, solve the majority of your exhausting problems, and face your demanding challenges in the most straightforward and least complicated way possible. In this book, we have strived to make surviving and thriving as a new immigrant in the United States of America to be a lot more easier. The rest of the process is upon you and we wish you a good read. Sincerely,Tegegne and Muluemebet
