With the Trump admin's new $100,000 H-1B now in play, we're looking at the potential impact on the global employment/talent outsourcing, especially in the US. We suspect outsourcing into the US is about to accelerate and want to get in front of th issue for out business audience. we need these queries answered for the story, the sooner the better.
1. What do you make of the new US H-1B $100,000 buy in? What's the impact on US hiring and why?
2. What does the new H-1B rule mean for the outsourcing industry, especially for outsourcing talent into the US in a post $2,000-per-staffer H-1B world? Are we going to see an outsourcing boom now? If so, why? If not, why not?
3. Any tips for US companies looking to work with outsourcing companies? What are the best questions to ask and ground to cover, and why?
I’m writing a piece on the Trump administration’s proposed changes to the H-1B visa program, including the newly announced $100,000 fee. I’m looking to speak with current H-1B visa holders about what this program means to them. You can remain anonymous if you prefer! Please be based in the U.S.
I’m especially interested in hearing:
-What do you think of the proposed changes?
-How has the news about the $100,000 fee impacted your sense of stability or plans?
-Are you reconsidering any travel, work, or family decisions because of the confusion?
-What do you want people to understand about H-1B holders?
