My friend just got her green-card via AOS through marriage. She was previously working on her H1B visa, and now wants to change jobs. I can't find any information on if she needs to inform the new employer about her green card status, or if she can just apply for the job.

Any advice would be appreciated. Please let me know if you need anymore details.

If she has a GC she can apply for any job. Her HB1 visa would be obsolete as far as I know

Divorced !st November 2012.

Yep, your correct, she talked to HR, and everything said from you and Justbob was correct. No need to say anything once you have the Greencard. Just when filling out the i9, you check the appropriate box, and use your GC as proof.
