"That was in the back of my mind, but I know of no restriction that enforces this." I used to do it and I know it is one of the requirements for getting an H1B visa approved. However, I'm not going to look up the specifics just for the sake of our resident dumbo.

People in the high tech business know that foreign engineers are necessary to fill the dearth of American engineers with advanced degrees, ie PhD's.
