how to proceed for green card

[juliaka]

Hello Anatolyk and other IMG members
I am going to start pediatric residency on H1b in NY. I actually would like to apply for green card in future ( employment based or area in need based...)
I have a few questions. Need an advice.
1. as a pediatrician how i know what pediatric sub specialties are in demand
2. How to find an employer who will support Green card application?
3. NY state give full licence only after completion of three years of residency. Does it mean that i will finished unlicensed and will not be able to find a fellowship/ job before the end of my H1b. How to prevent this from happening

thank you for help
Julia

I don't think you will have any problems finding green card sponsoring employer. When you start your serach (on your own or through an agency), mention this as a requirement.
