If I remember correctly, before covid19, there was a big shortage of IT workers in this country.
Your memory is failing then.
Only Indian IT companies and organizations report there is a shortage of IT workers in the US in order to bring in more Indians. If you are an American, you cant get even an entry-level position in industry. It is fully dominated by racist Indians.
Where did you get that information? The IT industry is saturated with H1B fake resume incompetent Indians. It's really out right massive fraud.
