Every applicant system asks the sponsorship question, and every elite international candidate who answers honestly disappears from your pipeline. O1DMatch is where those candidates are — with their evidence already organized — and staffing agencies join free.
“Will you now or in the future require sponsorship?” ends the conversation before a recruiter ever reads the résumé. Candidates on the O-1 path answer yes and get filtered out automatically — which means the strongest international candidates are systematically missing from the boards you already search. They are not missing here.
H-1B registrations fell from 343,981 to 211,600 in one year, and this year’s cap closed on July 17, 2026 — the next registration window opens approximately March 2027. A client with an open role today cannot solve it through the lottery. The O-1 route has no cap, no lottery, and files year-round, so a placement is never parked waiting for March.
Straight from the free course — what your candidates do, and what your client companies see.
"Kind of like Indeed, but with visas" — the two-sided platform your candidates and clients will both be standing on.
The job board from the candidate side — how the people you place find and answer roles.
The employer view — candidates arrive with organized, criterion-mapped evidence records, which is what makes the pitch to your client land.
No. Creating an account is free and takes no card. Pick the “Staffing Agency — I place O-1 talent for clients” tile on signup.
The candidate’s case is filed through an authorized agent or petitioner — the client company does not file, does not pay the USCIS filing fee, and does not run an H-1B sponsorship process. Its part is a one-page, non-binding interest letter.
Each candidate builds an evidence record classified against the eight O-1A criteria with a readiness score, so you can show a client a documented case. The legal read on any case belongs to the attorneys involved, and nobody can promise an outcome.
No. The O-1 has no annual cap and no lottery and files year-round, so a placement can move on the client’s timeline rather than waiting for a March registration window.
