No dreamers please!! - Page 4

Only HR knows. It's no one else's business.

Just the HR rep drove me nuts.

I was not denied a job or fired. I was on LOA. Manager and team knew it was due to EAD but didn't know any details. They were extremely nice and supportive.

seems like too many over qualified dreamers applied previously for their minimum wage job

I bet the person who posted that doesn’t even know what a dreamer is.

what makes you say so?

My company recently has made it clear they can't hire DACA, until legislation makes it permanent. They don't want to go through the process of having to fire someone after obtaining their dream job. Plus, they invest a lot of money in the first couple months developing new hires. It is the sad reality.

if you have a regular SSN card without"only valid with EAD" on it. and a State ID you do not have to show them your EAD card.

Curious....how would they know they're hiring a Daca recipient until day of hire when they present their EAD and fill out I-9 form?

It's so easy for companies to explain "business need" / "business impact" to discriminate. I can understand it from a business perspective as well. My company wines and dines new hires, sends them on a 2-week training and takes a hit from a revenue perspective while they are still learning/are slow on their new job.

If I was a business, I would probably take a similar stand - Jus being real!

"Are you able to travel internationally?"

"this job requires USC clearance, are you a USA citizenship?"

It is pretty hard without asking illegal questions.

Specially because some people with refugee status have EADs. Some even with recent green card applications.
