Sort of. Unless you can show that they make higher than the prevailing wage. This being regardless of what the H1B applicant could make if they transferred companies (something that's not typically in their best interest until they have a green card, at least from those I've talked to. Being a US citizen, I may be wrong). The prevailing wage, for many people, is not a competitive wage.
