Homestead Recruiting

We specialize in the placement of agricultural South African workers in the USA by means of the H2A visa program.

How it Works

What is the H-2A program?

The H-2A visa program enables American employers to employ reliable seasonal workers from different countries, such as South Africa. The program is specifically for those farmers who anticipate a shortage of local workers.

How does the process work?

We send our various applicants to different employers in the USA currently in need of seasonal workers. The employer decides on a shortlist and these candidates are contacted for an interview. Once the employer has made his final decision, we will sign contract with the relevant workers and assist with the visa application.

Application requirements:

The employees of focus include, but are not always limited to:

  • 19 – 55-year-old;
  • General farm workers;
  • Cattle workers;
  • Equipment operators;
  • Truck drivers;
  • Mechanical workers / Diesel mechanics.

It is preferable to have at least 3 months agricultural experience and/or a farming background. Please elaborate extensively on your experience and background in your application.

You will need:

  • South African Passport
  • Driver’s license
  • Videos and photos to show your skill level
  • And lastly a good attitude!

The accompanied costs

The visa application & travel costs are covered by the worker and reimbursed by the employer.
