The Justice Department on Thursday sued Facebook over allegations that it discriminated against Americans in the way it hired temporary foreign workers for thousands of well-paid positions.

The lawsuit contends that Facebook failed to properly advertise at least 2,600 jobs — and consider applications from U.S. citizens — before it offered the spots to foreign workers...

Doesn’t matter. The Indians control the IT recruitment systems in the US now. If you are an American citizen, it is almost impossible to get an information technology job now. At any pay rate for any skill. It is the largest employment discrimination racket in history.

No Shiite.

Facebook only hires foreign trash from India and maybe China.

No American can get past the Indian Engineers running the technical interview.

The lawsuit alleges that Facebook refused to recruit, consider, or hire qualified and available U.S. workers for over 2,600 positions that Facebook, instead, reserved for temporary visa holders it sponsored for permanent work authorization (or “green cards”) in connection with the permanent labor certification process (PERM). The positions that were the subject of Facebook’s alleged discrimination against U.S. workers offered an average salary of approximately $156,000. According to the lawsuit, and based on the department’s nearly two-year investigation, Facebook intentionally created a hiring system in which it denied qualified U.S. workers a fair opportunity to learn about and apply for jobs that Facebook instead sought to channel to temporary visa holders Facebook wanted to sponsor for green cards.

“The Indians control the IT recruitment systems in the US now.”

Evidently American companies wanted it and caused it to happen, with U.S. government’s help.

True. Only interviews I’ve manage to get are with recruiters/ companies in Germany, Canada, the UK or Thailand.

Even game companies such as Activision, Riot Games, Epic Games and Cloud Imperium Games are using Indian recruiters now.

Barr is playing effing tiddlywinks while the country goes in the crapper.

Improper hiring practices?

What’s that got to do with stealing an election?

And what’s that got to with censorship of conservatives but not of liberals?

I am a AWS/Redshift/Tableau BI expert with 20+ years of experience with all kinds of technologies. I have been unemployed for a year (a personal record). I get 2 to 3 calls everyday from Indians who I can barely understand. I get at least 10 job descriptions, in my inbox every morning, all from Indians. I know these people that “pretend” to recruit me actually hate me and are doing everything they can to keep me from getting a job. Who are paying these people to waste my time? The discrimination is so obvious and rampant. It is like a foreign invasion at the highest level of our information/intelligence infrastructure. It is destroying many American people and families.

Did you ever think you would pursue a hi-tech career and spend years looking for a job instead?
