Judging Opportunities Guidance for Fulfilling EB-1A Requirements
One of the most commonly misunderstood EB1 criteria is the requirement to “judge the work of others in the same or allied field.” On paper, it sounds like something only journal editors or panel heads can claim. In reality, there are many legitimate, respected ways to fulfill this criterion—if you know where to look and how to position yourself for it. That’s exactly what this service helps you do.
We Help You Find and Qualify For Real Judging Opportunities
Maybe you’ve reviewed student theses, volunteered as a hackathon evaluator, or assessed proposals in your organization. Maybe you’ve never judged anything formally, but you’re ready to. Either way, we guide you in identifying the right types of judging opportunities (peer-reviewed journals, grant reviews, academic panels, design contests, industry events, and more) that actually count toward your EB1 profile.
A Thorough Mentorship to Get You Started on Judging Opportunities
Our support doesn’t stop at advice. We help you draft tailored outreach emails and polish your LinkedIn or professional profile to make you a more attractive reviewer. We also help you prepare supporting documentation, like invitation letters, screenshots, or confirmation emails. If you’re already doing informal reviewing, we’ll help you formalize and document it properly. If you’re new to this, we’ll walk you through how to get started in a comprehensive manner.
