Bernie’s right on somethings here and wrong on others.
There’s already a “best and brightest” visa and it’s not H1B. It’s O1.
That said H1B is essentially the only reasonable way for people to immigrate to the United States through employment. Most employers are not going to stick out the convoluted process to obtain an EB2/3 immigrant visa for a worker they haven’t any experience with especially since they can enter the country and immediately work for someone else.
- hayd 1y agoL1 is another option.
- digianarchist 1y agoAs is TN and E3 but L1 is only an option if you can work for the company abroad for a year which is only possible if the company has some presence in your country. L1 is also harder to qualify for than H1B in terms of job requirements.
- throwawa14223 1y agoIsn’t H1B a temporary worker? That didn’t seem like it should be a path.
- digianarchist 1y agoAll non-immigrannt visas are temporary. You adjust status after you enter the United States. H1Bs can stay indefinitely only if they have a pending Green Card application.
