A Reddit post from an H-1B visa holder has sparked controversy after revealing he applied for over 1,500 positions in the US, receiving no responses. The candidate, a data engineer with over three years of experience, claims his current employer chose not to renew his H-1B application.
The Redditor sought assistance from the community, stating, 'What's been mentally exhausting is the complete silence despite applying everywhere across the country.'
However, the majority of responses were filled with anger, urging him to return to his home country, citing that possessing three years of experience is not advantageous in the field of data engineering.
Many Redditors expressed astonishment that H-1B visa holders, thought to possess advanced skills, are struggling to find employment in the country.
