[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Large Financial corporation that i work at will hire hundreds of H1Bs this year but will never interview a single Howard computer science graduate [b]What a culture we live in[/b][/quote] It's often called meritocracy. If companies are willing to go all the trouble of sponsoring visas and getting people with non-optimal language skills, it's because they are[b] getting more value there[/b]. Which is not surprising, if you compare the crazy admission and academic standards at top Indian colleges.[/quote] It all depends on how you define "value." If it means they can get a captive workforce and pay them less - then you are right. Hiring H1B workers is not about talent - it is about cost savings and profit. Period. As far as the academic standards, many of the H1B workers come from diploma mills and most of the graduates of the "top colleges" are not the IT drones you find coming here. [/quote]
