Beyond getting the licence I need an actual job. Has anyone got an experience on expats getting hired? Or better still have you got a job for me?
Thanks in advance for your help,let's begin......
Without a Green Card, you're going to have a difficult time. Furthermore it is expensive for an employer to even try to get you a work permit. Also keep in mind that Hawaii is an expensive place to live.
