H1b question

[mygoal2k6]

Hi friends,

Is it a good idea to mention some volunteer hours (experience) (not as an intern hours) done at independent pharmacy while applying for H1b to chain pharmacies?

any suggestions??? any inputs?? will be highly appreciated.

Thanks much.

hi mahek and others,
well as far as volunteering goes i do not see why any retail chain or hospital for the matter of fact would have any objection by seeing it in your resume .As far as walgreens is concerned personally speaking i am a pharmacist and they treated me pretty badly in pursing my case too which was just a simple transfer from another retail company i can say that so i guess its just the company's policy of work culture i guess .
anyways this is my point of view and expierence with walgreens nothing personal

big companies doesnt want to get any legal problems if anyone complains or sue them they have to suffer in millions. legally you are not supposed to work even if volunteering there are some condition who have to meet (non profit, charity or military etc )which they cannot keep track which you already did so they dont want to get involued
