We needed to hire a few people at a smaller Cisco site for a project in a less than favourite BU. Recruitment reached out to me after my rec didn’t find any fits in a week and the pushed a couple candidates my way. As these candidates required sponsorship, we knew that we could probably retain them for less and for longer. I don’t have anything against Americans, but if I can get someone who is better educated, will not jump ship in 18 months, and will do more for less then I’ll jump all over that.
Don’t hate the player, hate the game.
- dudul 8y agoIs 1 week of open rec legally enough to justify hiring an H1B? I thought the legal requirement to justify the petition was longer than that.

- my_usernam3 8y ago> I don’t have anything against Americans, but if I can get someone who is better educated, will not jump ship in 18 months, and will do more for less then I’ll jump all over that. By this logic, why not enslave children and teach them CS. The argument against cisco is the "players" are clearly trying to CHEAT "the game". H1b's are for finding talent when there isn't any, not for finding workers that won't "jump ship". The freedom to jump ship is why America is great.
