Labor Dept and Trump admin announced new H1-B restrictions after the slew of others were blocked by judges.
My reading of the new rules is that it won't directly impact the MBA applicants but it will have an impact, esp when certain jobs may not pass the requirement of being unique enough or being specialized enough.

I just read this news on LinkedIn. Everyday, VISA is becoming challenge on USA ground. Very upsetting news.

Who is the winner here ? Europe? Canada?Asia?
I am not sure but seems like there is a definite surge in Non US school applications.

Well we know who is losing it.

Uncertain times calls for certain actions.

Good questions. i don't think many people are winning per se. It does make it better to be a US person looking for a high tech job in the US but it did not seem to be hard to start with for a while.
I think US BSchools and their graduates have quite a bit to lose. The min salary cut off is not an issue for the Top employers but an average employer may not be paying $127K base for someone from Asia who has 2-3 years of work experience even if they graduated from a Top 10 program.... and let alone SCM jobs out of a top 40.
