Professional and academic credentials in developing countries are often unreliable or outright fake. If this happend with pilot licenses, imagine CS degrees or medical schoold... Any immigration and H1B reform will need to address this while being fair and free of prejudice.
- actuator 6y agoI am not sure about medical school but isn't this what interview processes of companies like Google or Facebook do?
- 737min 6y agoYeah, they’re partially that, but the immigration process runs off degrees more than interviews. For medical specialties there are tests by licensing boards and mandatory retraining.
- nradov 6y agoThe US doesn't accept medical degrees from Pakistan, or most other countries either. Immigrant doctors have to redo much of their training which is why many of them choose to switch careers instead.
- selimthegrim 6y agoWeird, I’m pretty sure I’ve run into residents here from India and Pakistan. What you mean is that they have to take USMLE and have to redo their residencies.
