Maybe in the medical field where the industry is understaffed with Docs Nurses and Techs but in high tech there are plenty of US educated engineers that have capabilities to do the job.

A quarter of what any group hires are duds anyway, just like misses in football recruiting

Do you have any proof for what you claim above?

Are you in a position to hire engineers? Let me guess what the answer is....
 
Do do you think these many articles are fake ?

One wonders what would happen if magically all these "Indians" disappeared.

An American with a decent resume and degree in a STEM field isn't going to struggle to find a job with rare exceptions.

Last sentence is spot on.

As for your middle paragraph,  if that happened I (and my company) would be completely screwed. I'd quit on the spot and look for a job where i could succeed
Yup we would all be screwed without Indian engineers

70%of H-1B visas go to India. Are US companies that beholden to India for engineers? Would the companies lose their competitive edge if they hired American born workers? Why do we have to prop up India and their citizens for jobs ?

Do think so many different companies would hire so many Indian engineers for  no reason?

There are two things here.  One is simply finding someone qualified for the position.  That can be a real struggle.

The second is compensation.  IF you can hire "Indians" and pay them less, it's a good thing costwise.  I doubt that is possible in most large companies.  It is IF you place them in India as contractors, but not as employees.

This COULD be a reason salaries have not expanded as fast as one might think in a very tight labor market.  Or not.

If US unemployment were higher, I'd say the first thing is a problem, but it's not of course.  Any American qualified in a STEM field with a decent resume is going to get hired quickly.  The compensation angle is more difficult to decouple.

I had three people in India who "worked for me" on a contract basis.  I had trouble keeping them occupied usually.  They had advanced degrees and we paid them peanuts.  I think the "loaded cost" was something like $85 K a year, for all three.  They did searches of literature and wrote reports in general.

Had we hired them, their loaded cost would have been 15x that if they were US based.

I used them to generate a TPS Report each week.  Seriously, that is what I called it.

I guess the rationale is the US is so desperate for workers or new college grads that the taxpayer is willing to pay or invest in it people so they stay here and donâ€t work in some other country. College kids ?

I just donâ€t see how that makes any sense for the taxpayer even if it is was man money for recruiting educated talent.

Iâ€d rather they not spend the money or bought wind farms.
