Oddly enough, I haven't had a day off in over three weeks? Why? Because I'm responsible for staffing several roles on the west coast where 90% of the current candidate pool that I am seeking require sponsorship. My company will sponsor employees, but they want us to literally kill ourselves trying to find American workers first, which I'm fine with.
I've collected a ton of data the past year that supports specific skill sets where 90+% of the pool that actually has it is visa dependent. It is a fact.
Start talking to universities about adapting their curriculum. NLU's (now ULM's) IS/CS programs were pretty much feeder programs for WalMart's backend (which is why COBOL was still part of the degree requirements into at least the late 2000's).

I do this! I'm on six curriculum advisory boards.
I am also on a board that helps set up a HS curriculum for future IT majors.
I am also working on a team within my company to help train our current new hires on these technologies.
I'm all up in this bizz...LOL
