What about highly specific technical roles for which there are few paths to fulfilling? Wouldn't that qualify as a shortage in labour supply?

- rhizome 9y agoPeople will acquire those skills if there are positions and pay for them. Employers simply don't like a demand surplus on labor.

- frgtpsswrdlame 9y agoYes, in the short term. That's actually the original goal of the H1B program, to address immediate labor shortages in fields where the time it takes to become fully trained is very long (PhDs and the like.) In the long term the problem solves itself with things like high salaries for statisticians, actuaries, programmers and so on.
