We haven’t had Americans apply for IT jobs in Dallas in a decade... we can’t even find HB1’s anymore... Too few Americans are getting STEM degrees...

Really. No shortage in Madison or Chicago last I checked a few years ago. What kind of pay are you offering?

There’s an H1-B outsourcing group on Facebook, with plenty of now-unemployed US workers posting there. I’d bet your employer could find candidates there, by close of business today.

I bet if you raise the salary enough you will have plenty of citizen applicants.

I can’t find a job with Post Grad in Mathematics and 20+ yrs of IT experience with patents and in latest technology. I am US Citizen.

There are atleast dozens of ex co-workers (US citizens) are looking for job. Even in Dallas my friends can’t find a job.

Really, I applied last year. They wanted me to fly down on my dime stay in a hotel on my dime and then do a face-to-face interview. Did they ever hear of Skype. So the part where no American has applied in Dallas is false.

What I find funny is that American companies are being duped by the skills presented on resumes by foreigners. I got the inside scoop on how they do it and American companies should look more in depth into these resumes because they are not getting what they are paying for but are thinking the skills from there are more than those here. Can’t find skilled American workers my arse.
