Do Canadian citizens need to apply for a visa to attend a job interview in the U.S.?
I am a Canadian citizen and I have been asked to attend an interview in the U.S. with one of the big tech companies. I have been only a Canadian citizen for a short time now, and I am not sure whether I need to apply for a some sort of business visa to enter the states for interview purposes. Do I need any kind of visa?
In either case (visa needed or not needed) do I need to present the U.S. border control any documents regarding my interview?
Can anyone please share their experiences? Thanks!
