Hello everyone,
My wife finished her Ph.D. last year and got a tenure track position at a regional university. The HR people said they will start the GC process in a couple of months and they kept their promise. However, we start running into some problems. The job ad was not posted in a national professional journal hence they cannot file for LC using 656.18. They said they will run a new job add in a national professional journal and file the LC using that add. Some people think it may not be “ethic” to do it that way.
My questions are:
Would that be OK with DOL?
If they run some regular adds and file under 656.17 what would be the advantage/disadvantage?
If they do not run any ads what would be a possible solution?
What is the best course of action for such situation?
Thanks,
Ben
P.S. The Ph.D. is in finance so there is no way for her to apply through self petition.
