How true that is. My main point was that advertising such as the
example quoted by the OP is just part of the legal procedural
requirement that an employer in the US must go through in order to
qualify for the H-1B visa that then allows them to bring in an o/
seas worker (typically at below-market rates) to take a job that
"locals" will appear not to want, either because the salary is
shockingly low, or because they didn't even know about it because
it was only advertised in the Mudflap* Monthly Inquirer or similar
small circulation paper.
Did anyone think *why* the companies do that ?
Yes, they want foreigners, they prefer them over citizens. They
avoid to hire citizens, they're trying to circumvent law
regulations as described above.
Again - why ?
Simple MONEY.
