Recruiter reached out to me with a lengthy post on how she was so impressed with my linkedin profile and she has a role which is tailor made for me. I asked her one question. Do they hire H1B. She said no. I gave her a blasting about how recruiters waste our time and are cruel to us. They should first ask the question "Are you US citizen or GC" and if not then STFU and get lost. Why to waste time discussing the role, background, skills only to state "no sponsorship at this time"? She apologized and left.... The role was indeed very good. Made me cry a little on the inside. Edit: Alright. Alright. Alright. I'll contact her back and apologize for my outburst. I guess i had a bad day. thank you fuckers for roasting me.
Didn’t consider O-1?
Now I know why you're bitter since morning. It's ok pal, you get a free hug from me. Your situation is direct result of choices you made. On an avg, I hope it's still good.
Because it's more efficient for her to sell first and ask later. Clearly it's better for her to open with selling the job rather than 'can you work in the us? Do you have a criminal record? Any drugs history? Great! Let me tell you about this job!' You have the restriction. It's your responsibility to ask.
99.9% of H1B don't have drug history or criminal record. these are luxuries which Citizens can afford.
You did not miss the point here at all....
Way to reinforce your privileged place in the fragile tech ecosystem, buddy: try a little appreciation & compassion - might help your chances of sticking around these parts.
1. When you visit a car dealer, would you be mad if he asked you about your bank balance before giving you a test drive? 2. Recruiters are human too - just doing their job. Please dont use them as punching bags - everyone has lot of shit to deal with anyways. I am Engineer and in the same boat as you’re so I understand your situation - have confidence in yourself you will get better jobs.
Cheesesteak.
You feeling happy now. Blasting a poor recruiter for doing their job.
OP is really a dick.
Did you put your #MAGA hat on before unleashing your fury?
I hope you look long and hard into a mirror today and know that everyone thinks you're an asshole. 👋
Hope you feel better about yourself. She was just doing a copy and paste to dozens of candidates and trying to hit her quota for a paycheck. Dick.
