1Opinion of the Court

CUDAHY, Circuit Judge.

Leo Burnett Company needed a creative designer to fill a position in one of its specialized advertising groups. In November 1987, it found Han Geva, an Israeli citizen working in the United States as a nonresident alien. Geva moved to Chicago from Los Angeles in April 1988 to begin work for Leo Burnett. When the company terminated him abruptly the following August, Geva brought this suit for damages. The district court granted Leo Burnett’s motion for summary judgment, and we affirm.
