Not saying this is a typical rate, but I’ve applied to 6 different companies so far TODAY.
I have stopped applying for jobs last week. My fear is everytime I “apply” I’m further poisoning any future attempts at applying for jobs. I have been doing research on these ATS / TMS software packages for a while now, I can’t find any information on whether or not they query sources outside of the businesses hosting these tools.
Ouch Semi-Conductor industry.... they pretty much exported all those jobs out of the U.S. Not sure whether you can blame HB-1 or other Visa’s on that, but I know I can safely say H1-B is making it much harder for me to find a job in the IT industry.
