H1-b Hype

April 1st, renowned as Fool’s day, has its own significance in US, for job seeking International aspirants. The day the receiving of the petition begins for H1-B visa. This year, it was mind boggling. This year, the number of applications received by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) was humongous. The craziness of working in US, especially in our country (India), is growing rapidly over the years. I feel, it can be termed as insanity, or psychopathy. USCIS received over 150,000 applications, far in excess of available numbers. It usually takes couple of months before USCIS receive the applications to fill up the available quota, but not anymore. I believe, it’s a part of the filthy game played by the consultants, by creating immeasurable hype on the growing demand on H1B visas. It’s just one of the tricks in foul business by middle man, who loves to take the undue advantage of a common man by holding a finger on his pulse. It’s just the way life goes here, I mean, and everywhere.
