Here in Atlanta projects are unable to staff up.

Except for the 2012-2016 period, all my time consulting in IT, I have seen projects unable to find enough competent staff. Some projects are fully funded, yet killed for lack of staff. Some projects are shipped to India for the sole reason that they cannot be staffed here.

The economy has hit a ceiling because there are not competent people available.

It’s chicken-and-egg here. People don’t want to train for positions that it’s highly likely they’ll lose to foreigners.

Heh, the positions I saw in the Atlanta area during that time said “local persons only.”

It appears H1-Bs somehow get around that, or maybe Tata gives them the relo for the huge mark up they get, while the wage provided is well under the going rate.

Offer better compensation, training, and/or relocation - even if lower level. If they can do it for India, it can be adapted to citizens.

Shipping off to India still doesn’t make sense when it relies on fraud/abuse.

You are a globalist liar and a POS.

I dare you to post the qualifications that you are looking for and the job description. Also post the starting salary SO WE CAN ALL LAUGH AT YOU AT HOW RIDICULOUS IT ALL IS.
