[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you giving away jobs to foreigners when there are so many unemployed Americans?[/quote]

Maybe because they are better qualified?[/quote]
This is an internship for Pete's sake. It's not like there are no qualified college students who also happen to be US citizens.[/quote]

Why discriminate?  :roll: [/quote]
Excuse me. Individuals with valid work authorization in the US. My company hires many workers of foreign origin but only those authorized to work in this country for any employer, which means Green card holder or naturalized US citizen. Very, very few candidates are worth the trouble of getting an H1 visa for them. Companies mostly do it so they can pay them very low wages.[/quote]

In some fields (math heavy), there are very few qualified US citizens. My company does not pay low wages and we do go through the effort to hire those on H1 B visas. We have a few positions that require the applicant to be a citizen and those take much longer for us to fill. [/quote]

This is just plain wrong.

There are plenty of virginia graduates looking for jobs for engineering and math.  Just make a modicum of effort.  I know I have interviewed these kids and many are OUTSTANDING, that I can not hire.

try and call, rather than give in to the recruiters placing H1Bs and others at cheap wages, a simple google and call and email
