The H1B - Kaku's favorite weapon

Sounds like they brought them in for OPT under their F visas then hired them on after obtaining H1B visas. Not an unheard of practice.
The H1B - Kaku's favorite weapon
And the US worker they replace has their lives shatttered. I’ve gone through this twice and said goodbye to IT in 2003.
There are thousands of Americans getting IT jobs every month. We can’t find programmers, H1B or not.
“loudwick — a data-analytics company whose clients include Apple, Cisco, Comcast, American Express, Bank of America, Safeway, Verizon and Visa....”
Data Analytics is really hot right now, salaries are off the chart. If they were Java programmers or something like that, I would agree with you.
Tell them to call tech support and talk to Apoo in India!
“Kick out ALL the H-1B foreigners!”
That could mean the CEO might only get two yachts instead of three, we can’t have that!
These companies are selling out the citizens of this country for money.
These companies are the corporate version of Judas Iscariot
Maybe offer higher salaries?
“We can’t find programmers, H1B or not.”
Sure you can. Get rid of the morons looking at resumes and try again. Most HR bimbos and manager can’t discern qualifications. They look for 20 purple squirrel qualifications and weed out 99.999% of applications instead of understanding a person has skills and can adapt.
U.S. government data shows Cloudwick received 27 approvals for H-1B applications last year, and 55 in 2016.
Hmmm... That's 82 people in just two years. I wonder how many people work for this outfit? How long have they been in business and how many total H-1B visa holders do they employ?
That works in the corporate world.
That can’t be right, a person has to have 72 years of experience with Windows 10 to be qualified.
Well, we all know people lie on their resumes! :)
Considering the vast majority of what you need to know is learned on the job, unless you’re a brain surgeon, the reliance on padded resumes continues to amaze me. Bring people in, give them a real-world problem from your company and see how they do. That would work out far better than resume scanning.
It used to be engineers were hired with loosely reasonable backgrounds. Now there are 10-20 “must haves”. Indians lie for each other to get the jobs and keep out Americans.
