Hi Hugh,

I believe my client will be opened to hire someone with TN Visa.  Please
forward your resume to me asap and we can talk.

Thanks,
Victoria

Re: "I'm not looking for permanent opportunities, so may not be able to go
the
TN/NAFTA route."

A TN is specifically a work visa with temporary intent. Maybe you said this
wrong, but if you want to work in the States temporarily, the TN visa is
exactly what you want. It does what you want and it lowers the bar for
American
employers who are concerned about the administrative complications of
permanent
visas (like the L-1 and the H1-B).

Also, for Americans who are hiring, getting a TN visa for a Canadian is
pretty
painless, as far as I can tell. There is no labor certification process, for
example. It ought to be as easy as sending a detailed offer letter ("Dear
Mr.
Kaczor, We here at AmeriCorp are dying to hire you as a Computer Systems
Analyst on a TN Visa...") and then filing a photocopy of the I-94 that the
Canadian worker gets with the INS (recently renamed to something else).

But that's just my perspective as a Canadian who has had a number of such
visas, not as an employer who has done the hiring.
