Citizens do get the jobs. By design visa workers need to find a new job asap, while citizens can take their time to find something. From personal experience with recent layoffs, pretty much all the citizens took a break before resuming job search. Everyone has been burnt out since covid started. Companies milked record high profits from employees by making them work hard only to lay them off once they were burnt out. If given an opportunity most visa workers would also take a break.
