I'm not involved in the hiring aspect so I don't really know but I think the answer to your question is yes. Another strategy is to work for a company abroad (that also has operations in the U.S.) and then after one year of employment, seek a transfer to the U.S. through the L-1 process. With large multinational companies, this L-1 transfer process is easy.
