'Big Tech, your time to pay for your crimes is here'

Analyst confirms corporate scheme to overlook Americans so that foreigners can be hired

Under U.S. law, before an employer can sponsor a foreign worker for permanent residency (green card) through the PERM labor certification process, they are legally required to first recruit for the job and consider all qualified U.S. workers, YES including U.S. citizens. This is not optional. It is federal law.

My process is simple. I identify PERM job listings, review the qualifications, and only apply when I clearly meet or exceed every listed requirement. In most cases, I am not just qualified, I am overqualified, with advanced degrees, certifications, and over 10 years of direct experience that wasn't faked.

So far, I have applied to over 7,000 PERM job openings (and counting) across multiple industries. Despite being fully qualified for every single one, I have been interviewed fewer than five times. In nearly every other case, I was either rejected outright or simply ignored.

Many of these employers went on to sponsor a foreign worker for the same job by filing a Form 9089. Others reposted the exact same role a few months later and ignored me again. I applied every time. This is not a coincidence. It is part of a pattern.

This behavior is not just unethical. It is illegal and discriminatory.

Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, this violates 8 U.S.C. § 1324b. I have reported many of these employers to the Department of Justice's Immigrant and Employee Rights Section. If companies want to ignore qualified American citizens, they can explain it to federal investigators.
This is not just about me. This is about thousands of American workers being pushed aside in their own country by a system that prioritizes cheap, less skilled, and always compliant foreign labor and corporate profit over fairness, merit, and the law.

If you believe Americans should come first in America, it is time to pay attention. The system is being abused. And we are blowing the whistle.

Last week, I learned several of the DOJ investigations I triggered have officially moved into the accountability phase.

That means the clock just ran out for some of you. Big Tech, your time to pay for your crimes is here.
You exploited our laws. You ignored qualified U.S. citizens. You thought no one was watching.
Wrong.

This is your warning, if you're violating PERM laws and haven't landed in my crosshairs yet, you're on borrowed time. I'd start following the laws or your next hire will be a defense attorney…Try me.
