Perhaps, but this is probably to weed out jobseekers who want
money, money and more money.
Not quite. One of the companies that does this lays out in specifics
that you can hire cheaper labor with H1B's after you have advertised
at a grossly unfair rate local people who wouldn't think of working
at the rate of H1B's .
About 20 years ago a company I worked for hired one of these
workers. What they got was a semi trained individual that could
barely do JCL. He had a contract for 6 months and was promptly
lost when his contract was up.
I am not sure this example proves anything except he lied on his
resume.
That company could at interview, checks out his skills. Example,
ask that prospective employee/contractor to show he/she/it could do
X with JCL/JES2/RACF/SMS/COBOL/whatever.
In "this" case the company demanded that the department hire
*SOMEONE* at less than the prevailing wage.
Something like this: "You said on CV, you can do X, Ok, show me how
you do X with <tool, say JCL>, please. If you cannot do X, there is
a map to door to pavement. Goodbye."
NO interview involved hire a H1B at a cheap rate no matter the
qualifications so the only option is to look at resumes.
