US visa for job interview

[strangerboo]

Hi All,

I am based in UK and nationality is not british . I have checked us embassy page and understand I have to apply for visa .
I understand I have to fill a form in and then call to make an appointment which can take up to 1 month or more. My job interview is urgent and really hard to wait one month for this and further few days while this is processed.
I have read you can apply for expedited processing or in another way urgent appointment , is this possible?
I think I need B1 visa as business visitor( job interview) . Do I need to have my hotel and airline ticket all booked ?
I don’t want to book it as I don’t know when I will get the result.

Thanks

Current wait time for an appointment @ London embassy is 21 days. Add to that processing time, and yes, you're looking at a month's time.

Emergency appointments? Sure thing - here, took me about 20 seconds to find it - http://london.usembassy.gov/cons_new...cy_london.html

It is my pleasure to Google stuff for you.

A job interview is rarely, if ever, a reason to get an expedited appointment.

This is when you say "Thanks for your help!"

This is why I posted here so I know how to use google 
Thanks anyway

The only people in the world that call each others "mate" are aussies or kiwis, mate. If you were an aussie or a kiwi, you would know that neither one needs a visa for the US.

Thanks for playing, though.
