Why GoToSilicon为什么选我们

Coaching from inside the chip industry来自芯片行业内部的辅导

Industry insider, not a generalist行业内的人,不是泛泛的求职顾问

Our coaches are working engineers at US semiconductor companies, on GPU, NPU, XPU and system design, and know what hiring managers actually test.我们的导师都是美国半导体公司的在职工程师,做 GPU、NPU、XPU 和系统设计,知道招聘经理真正考什么。

Sponsor data, not guesswork用数据选公司,不靠猜

Target lists are built from public H-1B LCA records for hardware roles, so you don't spend months on employers that won't sponsor.目标公司清单来自公开的 H-1B LCA 记录,不在不担保的公司上浪费几个月。

A 12-month plan, not one mock interview12 个月的规划,不只是一次模拟面试

From choosing a role to negotiating the offer, with weekly check-ins.从选方向到谈 offer,每周跟进。

FAQ

Common questions常见问题

I'm a CS (or physics / ME) student. Can I really switch into hardware?我是 CS(或物理、机械)专业,真的能转到硬件吗?

Often, yes, especially into verification, systems/firmware, and AI infrastructure roles. In the first session we assess your gap honestly and tell you if the timeline is realistic.很多情况下可以,尤其是验证、系统/固件和 AI 基础设施方向。第一次咨询时我们会如实评估你的差距,告诉你时间是否来得及。

Do you guarantee an offer or H-1B approval?你们保证拿到 offer 或 H-1B 吗?

The hiring decision belongs to the employer and H-1B selection is a lottery, so no honest coach can guarantee an offer or H-1B approval. What we can promise is that you walk into every interview as prepared as possible.录用由雇主决定,H-1B 是抽签,所以任何诚实的教练都不能保证 offer 或 H-1B 结果。我们能承诺的是:让你每一场面试都尽可能准备充分。

Can you advise me on my visa or immigration case?能帮我看签证或移民问题吗?

We've been through the same process ourselves. But policies can keep changing, so we share only general public information. For your specific immigration situation, please talk to your school's DSO or an immigration attorney. We'll help you prepare clear questions, so your time with them counts.我们自己也走过同样的流程。但政策可能随时变化,所以我们只分享公开的一般信息。你个人的具体移民问题,请咨询学校的 DSO 或移民律师。我们会帮你准备好要问的问题,让你和他们的沟通更有效率。

When should I start?什么时候开始比较好?

Ideally 12 months before graduation, so there is time for projects and summer internship recruiting. If you are closer than 6 months, we'll focus on single sessions and a realistic plan.最好在毕业前 12 个月,这样有时间做项目、找暑期实习。如果离毕业不到 6 个月,我们会以单次咨询为主,并给出现实的计划。

How are sessions held?怎么上课?

Online by video, in English or Mandarin, scheduled around your classes.线上视频,中文或英文,时间配合你的课表。
