Start saying L1, not just H1B. It's a much larger program.
But yes, I've been in rooms where job postings were created to disqualify local candidates so they could bring in L1s... For technical positions, they would fill the ad with technical jargon, or something impossible to achieve outside the company.
I used to notice our company would require 5 years of experience on internal systems, that had only been out for a couple years = no qualified candidates.
I've seen the same types of things. Revising the immigration process is the solution. Why do we have to prove no one can do the job? That's just silly. Companies can also simply offshore positions so I'm not sure why folks think this offers a form of protectionism. A better protection is advocating for education and training within communities.
Yeah, the explicitly never trained anyone.
I had maybe one job where I was formally trained, and it was a "couldn't be done by foreigner" custome facing role in secure facilities that required background check type stuff.
That was it.
But they always seem to have time / money for HR training bullshit. Riddle me that?!?
