Seems to me a manager or above has to certify that a necessary skill is not available from a US worker before AND while an H1B worker is in place. As I recall, they have to certify and sign a form saying the needed skill isn’t available, but they don’t have to identify the steps they took to find a US worker. That leads to a lot of misuse.
I’d like to see an audit of the thousands of Walmart H1B positions from the last 10 years done to see just how many were valid and how many were fraudulent.
Nope, they want cheap labor and by importing the H1Bs they are depressing the US wages. Now, they have been doing it since 2005 and now you have 4 million Indians in the states + spouses + kids, that'd be 10M+ and it's changing the profile of some cities, counties and the states. The Bay Area is an Indian enclave now. I have nothing against immigration of any creed but it needs to be distributed and you cannot have 15% of global population represent 80% of the immigrant visas. It's a rigged game on that level. It's also a rigged game for the US worker who pays for it with depressed wages. Corporations do win, but they do not care about the Country or the Worker.
No. Walmart can't force itself to tell the truth about anything.
No. They’re not being truthful.
Nothing against the people from India I’ve worked with, but I haven’t seen any of them in jobs that an American citizen couldn’t do.
H1B has a place. If there are critical jobs we can’t fill. But companies are lying about not being able to find American workers so that they can pay H1B workers less. There needs to be regulation so that doesn’t happen.
