In the recent number of BusinnesWeek Magazine, there is an article about "America's High Tech Sweatshop". It article talks about how a few High Tech Tech companies are violating American Immigration Laws. Some companies are violating the law unwittingly but others intentionally abuse the immigrants.
The way how the system works is some companies unscrupulous put an advertisement outside the United States looking for workers with high professional level. When the worker applies, they ask him for a FEE to sponsor his Work Visa. Many times they pressure him to inflate his resume about his education or his job experience to make easier obtain a Visa and "to charge corporate clients higher fees for their service" (pag 36 , BusinessWeek October 12,2009). Some times workers never gets visa even they paid , but when they do, many times the company doesn't have a job for them. They come to U.S. but they have to search their selves a job, or the company places foreign workers at clients companies, then they put off part of their pay or charge to their fees for administration. This kind of worker cannot complain, because the company held their Visa documents, so they are afraid about it company revoked their Visa.
The magazine is clear to say that no all companies are involve in this kind of situations, and let us know an address on Internet to avoid abuse bx.businessweek.com/immigration/reference/. I recommend if we have a relative or friend searching a job in US let him know this page to dodge any kind of exploitation.
