As I keep telling people, LOTS of Indians who are over here are not doing tech jobs. There are tons of middle management positions that could be filled by Americans which are instead filled with H1B Indians because they are CHEAPER.
No, these are hardly jobs Americans are unwilling to do or incapable of doing. You simply do not need any kind of advanced computer skills to do a lot of the roles I see filled by Indians.
and no, I don’t hate Indians. My best since I was 4 years old is Indian though he’s an American having been born and raised here. It just hits you as an overwhelming fact when you look and see who is filling white collar jobs at a lot of companies. He H1B system has been massively abused by companies to get CHEAP labor.
The medical professional suffer too, as you say. My brother is a rather high up government employee in the NHS. He fights that battle all the time.
Medical school entrances are being controlled more and more by Indians such that students applicants have turned to faking being black or other minority just to get accepted.
There was a story posted here on FR about a guy who only changed to being black to get accepted to med school.
Again, a major negative consequence of foreigners is that they try to only hire their kind.
It must be the case. There’s only 2 possibilities for a company that claims it can’t find American IT workers: either it offers below market rates, or it is deliberately avoiding finding Americans using the long-documented “how to avoid hiring an American” H1-B trick.
“I was in a large set of buildings on the Microsoft campus that went from 30% foreign born to 80% foreign born (mostly Indian) in 3 years … after Satya Nadella became CEO.”
I had a long standing relationship with Microsoft so I also have friends that worked there. Few do anymore. They, too, say what you just did in that it is more than half Indian now.
“My best since I was 4 years old is Indian though he’s an American having been born and raised here. “
A very good friend of mine is from India. He HATEs the H-1B program. He came here on an education visa and applied for a green card and waited two year to get it. He has adopted the American culture and finds most Indians to be reprehensible in their treating American as nothing more than a paycheck.
I lost a friend from India that I thought was a good guy, but when he received his US citizenship he told no one. He claimed he was embarrassed for getting it but he wanted to stay in the US. Turns out he thought I was an American hating liberal like him.
“We have closer to 7000 IT people. And that’s correct, we have right at 1.5% attrition. “
No, you don’t. I can name every single Fortune 100 company off the top of my head, having worked for nearly all of them myself. Not a single one has only a 1.5% attrition rate. None.
Companies lie and fudge their attrition rates for social media consumption to be in the “Top companies to work for lists”.
Who the hell do you think you’re lying to anyway?? A bunch of other naïve and gullible nerds like you??
“Shut your scumbag mouth. Stick to child porn perv.”
You’re reputation precedes you, rrrod.
You always turn to child pornography when you try to insult people. Why is that, rrrod?? Why are you consumed with pornography, are you a chronic masturbator?
You’re posts are always very liberal and anti-American.
“instead filled with H1B Indians because they are CHEAPER”
As post 123 also notes, it’s not just that.
What they do when they get into any position of power is predictable: they only hire other Indians.
And they do that by faking the H1-B statement of need.
Ethnic solidarity and contempt for Americans motivates them, and cost is not that big of a player after they get entrenched.
Was at a hotel in the upper midwest the other day and the desk mgr and her family were all Indian, even though it was a corporate owned property, not them. It never matters: once they get in, they drag everyone in their extended family in so they can get in on the goodies.
And if an Anglo employee does that, it’s “illegal nepotism and discrimination” with “disparate impact” according to the worthless SOBs wearing black robes who call themselves our judges.
Not these kinds of skills.
I would say the percentages who are smart enough to learn these skills are:
Basic operations support: 30%
Routine maintenance programming: 10%
Object-oriented system design: 2%
Chip-level graphics programming: .5%
You’re an idiot.
“Americans using the long-documented “how to avoid hiring an American” H1-B trick.”
For those that don’t know...
The pro H-1B companies simple put out a ridiculous list of “qualifications”, and then claim no American meets every last qualification. They then take in bogus resumes from Indians who have copied and pasted the entire job qualification list into their resume to claim the Indian candidate meets the requirements.
The company then lies and states on the H-1B visa application that no American met the qualifications.
When a company demands an US Citizen, I’ll have 100 emails from Indian recruiters for the job. I’ll call one or two just to keep up on their tactics. They’ll coach me on how to copy and paste the job qualifications to ensure I am accepted.
“You’re an idiot.”
Is that all you’ve got? Child porn and name-calling??
Typical millennial child.
“We don’t fudge anything. It’s not in our culture. “
ROTFLMAO!
A corporation that doesn’t fudge anything. OK. We believe you.
You’re a loser...and you know it. Enjoy your miserable life.
With so many Indians as managers, Americans are now discriminated against in the workplace.
“I still think it’s reduculous that they can’t (won’t) train U.S. citizens to with these skills.”
They are being trained. The problem is not lack of possible employees to be employed. It is that foreign H1B invites are taking over jobs that our US youth could fill. And cost is the calculation that keeps them coming. Along with a commitment to some third world countries started by the Obama administration (big surprise) to get them here to take over and clobber our employment numbers.
The H-1B is a visa in the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act, section 101 which allows U.S. employers to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations. If a foreign worker in H-1B status quits or is dismissed from the sponsoring employer, the worker must either apply for and be granted a change of status, find another employer (subject to application for adjustment of status and/or change of visa), or leave the United States. Effective January 17, 2017, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services modified the rules to allow a grace period of up to 60 days but in practice as long as a green card application is pending they are allowed to stay. In 2015, there were 348,669 applicants for the H-1B filed of which 275,317 were approved. The numbers are hard to find now but are increasing and spreading out into other fields of computer work requirements.
But, on April 18, 2017 President Trump signed a “Buy American, Hire American” Executive Order which sets broad policy intentions directing federal agencies to propose reforms to the H-1B visa system that currently allows extended stay for temporary skilled workers which allows transition into citizenship without any purview of federal discernment and regulations or quotas that balances growing job needs of American population.
On June 28, 2018 the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services Department (USCIS) came up with a new rule that will make US deport those whose request for the visa extension is rejected. The duration of stay is three years, extendable to six years. An exception to maximum length of stay applies in certain circumstances. The maximum duration of the H-1B visa is ten years for exceptional United States Department of Defense project related work. They can get off the visa program by becoming US citizens.
