Do big data jobs at Walmart or Amazon indicate relevance?

When we talk about immigration processes in the United States, especially in the context of the EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver), professional experience and relevant contributions in your field can be determining factors.

This visa is aimed at professionals with exceptional abilities, and in this case, those working in big data can have their work considered valuable if they demonstrate positive impact and benefits for the country.

In the scenario of large companies such as Walmart or Amazon, experience in big data can indeed be viewed as an important differential. Working at these internationally recognized corporations can strengthen your profile, especially if you can prove that your analyses and projects contributed to innovative solutions, operational improvements, or strategies that reflect significant gains for the company.

The essential point is to highlight how your expertise added value, either through publications, lectures, awards, or technological implementations that demonstrate leadership and impact in the field.

Still, it is important to remember that success in the EB-2 NIW process does not depend solely on the name of the company where you worked, but rather on the set of evidence proving your competence, the relevance of your work, and your ability to contribute to the national interest of the United States. Each case is analyzed individually, considering the entirety of your professional and academic background.

Finally, I always emphasize the importance of following all U.S. immigration laws and seeking help from sources and professionals specialized in immigration before starting any process. Be cautious with promises of guaranteed results and marketing campaigns that may not offer the necessary security and credibility for this type of procedure. Getting information through official channels is a crucial step to avoid problems and scams.
