re: The H1-B visa ban is dumb.

Was this the first time you’ve ever hired someone? I fill 2-3 new hire positions a year and interview as many in a month. American universities train kids to start at a higher salary than they expect to get. First, as you already pointed out, they have no experience and no realistic expectations of what an entry level job pays. They’re looking to negotiate.

I suppose you get credit for taking the easier route though.
