This is why the H-1B visa is not popular for hiring lawyers. If you treat them as indentured servants (i.e. using the visa as it was designed), they can turn around and sue you.

Sound familiar? Thanks to dual intent, employers can get away with abuses because employees are holding out hope for a green card and will put up with a lot. The #h1b visa is EVIL in so many ways. Reform it or end it @SenatorDurbin @ChuckGrassley @RepJimBanks.
@SenatorDurbin @ChuckGrassley @RepJimBanks This is how #h1b is used to undercut wages. Prevailing wage for lawyer in Chicago is $71k. They paid this woman $55k. This is a perfect case study why we need to issue the H-1B wage rule @SecMartyWalsh @USDOL @POTUS to protect workers and prevent wage abuses.
@USEEOC and @DOJ_EOIR protect workers from hostile workplace discrimination based on national origin. If you treat your workers like this they can take you to court.

“Recruitment process outsourcing”

Notice the companies profiled in this market report:

Kenexa (owned by IBM)
Randstad
Kelly Services

taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4420266
KellyOCG sources labor for tech companies by pushing resumes of candidates mostly from India who are supremely unqualified. They attempt try to distract you from how bad the candidates are using local bimbos who escort the candidates to interviews.
Nothing more awkward than trying to administer a technical interview while a blonde from Insight Global or Kelly Outsourcing is sitting next to the candidate trying to look interested in Java.

Then you have to dodge said blonde who stalks you with a bag full of fake resumes.

Add us to the protests. The "IT group" should not have any say in this case. They are the ones who created this problem by illegally selling #H1Blottery tickets in bulk for jobs that don't exist.

@ITServeorg timed the filing of their motion so the court case would drag on and the March lottery would go on as usual, allowing them to scam the lottery like they did last year.
The Chinese and Indian plaintiffs in the case are afraid that #ITScumAlliance will send their goons after them. In other words, the IT mafia is real.

DHS says they haven't received any input from the public suggesting STEM OPT fields to remove. Let's fix that... ImageImageImage
Send an email to SEVP@ice.dhs.gov with subject line "Attention: STEM CIP Code Nomination" and nominate ALL of the STEM fields for removal. Here is the list for convenience, feel free to attach it to your email.

🤡

We're sure this will be rejected by some pasty faced bureaucrat but it's worth it for the lolz, highly recommend everyone reading this to fire off an email to your unelected deep state workers to let them know what you think of their STEM OPT list... Image

“The new policy expands the Optional Practical Training (OPT) program, the J-1 visa, the O-1 visa and opens a path for additional foreign graduates to ask for green cards from their homelands.” breitbart.com/economy/2022/0…
“The extra [22] careers include non-STEM careers such as “general forestry,” as well as careers sought by women graduates, such as data visualization, environmental studies, and organizational psychology.”
“The uncapped J-1 program will now be opened to businesses, allowing them to import more foreign graduates. This work program is uncapped and is justified as a non-work “cultural exchange” opportunity.”

"1,076 of these foreign individuals – all of whom were willing participants in the scheme"

Never thought we would be saying we miss the @BarackObama days when @ICEgov actually enforced immigration law.

ice.gov/news/releases/…
The 1,076 students lost their status and faced deportation. They knew they were breaking the law. Actions have consequences.
"Since the whole enterprise was known as a fraud to everyone concerned — recruiters, brokers, "students", and some employers of the "students" — all were clearly participating in illegal activity."

"Charles Edwards" is the man pictured in the photo who just pled guilty to stealing software and databases from the government while he was Inspector General for DHS under Obama.

Read on to learn what the media isn't telling you about "Charles". 🧵

lawandcrime.com/high-profile/e…
This guy's job was to act as a watchdog for fraud. Instead, he defrauded the government to steal the personal data for a quarter of a million DHS and USPS workers and sell it to India.
Who would steal software and databases to develop a product to sell back to the government? Sounds familiar right? Charles KUMAR Edwards took a page out of the outsourcing playbook.
