HOW INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS CAN $AVE YOU MONEY

In today’s economy, we at ACAWE realize that employers are looking at every possible way to reduce expenses. Hiring International students for seasonal employment can instantly have a positive impact on your bottom line in the following ways:

  • No need to spend valuable time and money advertising open positions – simply tell us what positions you need filled and we will provide pre-screened candidate profiles
  • Complete your seasonal hiring 30-60 days before the season starts
  • International students are seasonal hires so there is no need for costly, emotional and time consuming lay offs at the end of the season
  • We provide Health Insurance directly to the students so there is no increase in your cost of benefits
  • J-1 students do not qualify or need unemployment insurance so your rates remain unaffected
  • Because employers are exempt from paying Social Security (FICA) and Medicare tax on wages paid to
    J-1 SWT participants, they can realize a 7.6% savings on payroll Taxes. For example:
