It has become increasingly common for H-2A employers to receive unsolicited emails and phone calls from international applicants seeking employment. Such inquires frequently come from Haiti, Turkey, and South America, but can come from any nation. This is the result of the U.S. Department of Labor posting all approved H-2A labor certifications on its SeasonalJobs website, which mercifully replaced the H-2A employer’s previous costly and futile obligation to post newspaper ads as a condition for H-2A certification.
