Be careful with  J-1 visa interns.  One of the Las Vegas newspapers did a major expose` on medical J-1 interns.  After the expose`, there were some major change in the laws governing all J-1`s.

I found hundreds of sites.  But, here are a few to get you started.  Note: you have to be an approved J-1 sponsor to hire J-1 interns.
