rejected after a call with recruiter

I applied for a fb swe position last week and had a call with one recruiter about my personal info. Today i got an email saying they are not moving forward. Im currently in canada and applying for a us position. Is it possible that they don't want to sponsor my h1b? If its because of my skillsets they can simply know thst from my cv right?

They could have had an internal.

Typical excuse

I didn't reject him, I was just answering the question, settle down...

Do you really expect someone here to know why you were rejected?

Amazon vztV11 OP Nov 12, 2019

No. I just recall that someone here said fb no longer sponsor h1b for engineers under senior level. Im not sure if thats my case.

Even if, there could have been a million different reasons.

I thought TN visas are relatively easy to get? Do you have a relavent degree?

Amazon vztV11 OP Nov 12, 2019

Whats TN? Im in bachelor degree only

If you’re a Canadian citizen you can get that I believe

Why dont you move to Amazon US? Did u just move to Canada from india?

Amazon vztV11 OP Nov 12, 2019

Yes i can. But i personally think moving to us on h1b is better so we don't have to stick to Amazon.

Amazon wont apply for H1B?

It might be because of sponsorship. I also faced a similar scenario. They asked some personal questions and then sent the generic rejection mail.

Were you able to get a TN visa?

Mine was a different case. International student, needed sponsorship (H1B)
