Hello...new to the forum and i have been reading all the posts but they all seem to be about after some1 already has a H1B....My question is as follows...

If i live in a foreing country and find a US employer/sponser what is the process?

1) US employer files for work visa?
2) I go for an interview at my consulars?
3) If granted, I get a work visa that is valid for a certain date range?
4) I travel to US on work visa and goto work etc...

If so, what happens if my US employer/sponser lays me off b4 i even travel? Do they file a termination notice with USCIS and that invalidates my visa? or Can i still travel to US and look for another job? Im assuming that I can't because Id be out of status and would basically be here illegally....

Thanks
