>Now? Now EVERY country is going to be fighting for h1bs. So this means that the tech sector is about to face a labor shortage.
Doubtful. The US and Canada seem to be getting ready to get rid of their H1Bs. The labor from India is not as skilled as their credentials would lead you to believe.
Sure if you get 10 of them you might get 1 or 2 that has a clue but the bulk are little more than stop-gaps that you could remove by automating whatever it is you had to painstakingly tell them, in exact detail, what to do.
When you train enough of them and realize that you have done all the thinking for them and come up with every possible scenario and course of action for that scenario then next realization hits...not only would you have spent less time just and money just doing the shit yourself but also you've made a blue print for automating away the need for them in the first place.
However you are stuck because over time with the collective incompetence it all piles up and now you're drowning in problems constantly.
It is funny tho watching the actual competent ones get so pissed at their fellow Indians but be absolutely resigned to keeping them around.
Oh and on the credentials front...
I have trained so many that come with resumes with years of experience and education in the exact things the company asked for only to get an experience that leads me to believe they got exposed to a computer just a week before getting the job.
Oh and be prepared for frustrations beyond belief. Instead of telling you they don't know how to do something or they don't understand what you mean they will just do things, inevitably fuck it all up, and now it's your mess clean up.
All of this is starting to come to a head in the nations (America) where they have been aggressively imported and outsourced to.
Not to mention all the other problems that are building to a general anti-foreigner wave of political will.
