Re:How Middlemen Are Gaming the H-1B Program on Wednesday July 31, 2024 @08:02PM (#41124841)
This is a lie. Look, I can understand if your H1B engineer compared to an "average software engineer"/

I graduated from one of the best high schools in the United States (meritocratically at institutions that have perhaps the 7th and 0th highest average SAT scores). If I was white, I'd probably be in MIT, but I was unlucky, so I ended up in CMU CS. I ended up doing and withdrawing from a master's program that had average scores compared to Stanford and Harvard's business school.

I'm born in the UNITED STATES, and I was ahead of so many H1B employees, some maybe a decade older. Do you know what they do? Once I'm dealing with an H1B manager, mostly if they're from India, they'll lie. If its an interviewer, they'll give me a hard time.

COME ON, the standardized test scores are there. If you're going to lie, pick an average American. But what do they do? Oh no! We can't possibly falsify the performance review of a WHITE engineer from some average college. Let's lie and hire unqualified engineers!

This happens even in Bloomberg, Microsoft, and Amazon. Are you kidding me? I'm underleveled. Hell, I did a project way beyond the highest of levels. You know when Congress asks TikTok's CEO that important question about world leaders.
