However, even without experience, I've already plunged headfirst into all the pleasant and not-so-pleasant chores... Actually, I was literally shoved headfirst into a barrel of these chores and they're waiting for me to choke on them, like in 90s movies, because, at the very least, everything turned out to be more complicated than I expected: filling out forms, going through interviews (where I had to talk about making mac and cheese, which was extremely unexpected; it literally killed my entire response strategy and defense tactics), squeezing offers out of miserable employers (which can generally be avoided if you choose full-service), and so on. The most nerve-wracking part is passing the US visa interview. But first, you need to explore the entire embassy website, read a ton of information, fill out forms, book a slot for the interview, get to the embassy, pay the MRV Fee, find accommodation, and, the most pleasant part of the trip, live in another country for about a week.
