Internationals Searching Inside the US

Looking to get in touch with people who do not have permanent residency in the US. 
What visa options are open to internationals who want to search in the US? Differences between funded or self-funded searches?

As far as I understand, E-2 and EB-5 are investor visas that require having the business to invest in, and must be a business that creates/maintains employment. How does the visa situation play out during the search, and how does not having a permanent/any visa affect your funding options?
With OPT, from STEM MBA programs, can you work around the visa situation during the search?
