Cynical alternative: The job is meant exclusively for H1B candidates, and the posting is just so they can say they had no qualified locals.

Cheaper. Common H1B rate is 30-70% of the green card rate.

If you few IT as expense centers not innovators.. i.e. we make a lot of money, but we need IT people to build our business people some reports.. why not hire the cheaper guys?
