The Grim Reality
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/grim-reality-prathiba-kalyan
There is a thin line between exaggeration and blatant lying. What we are
witnessing off late, is more so of the latter.
As part of the internal due diligence process, we check the Visa copy, the
driver’s license and even the passport in some cases, of the consultants’
who send their resumes for positions that are open with us. We are
witnessing cases where consultants’ have forged all these documents. They
have manipulated the date of birth, used someone else’s H1 copy and
incorporated their name to prove legal work status.
This is a new low for the IT staffing industry. I am sure many of you
reading this would have also come across such deceit and fraud. Perhaps it
was happening in the recent years, but we are seeing many such cases every
week. Most of the recruiters’ time is spent, not on making sure if the
consultant is qualified technically or if he has the right skills and
temperament for the job, but to make sure the consultants’ documents are
authentic and not faked.
In the absence of a strong law for penalty or action, this is going to
continue. People will get more emboldened, more creative in finding ways to
cheat. The consulting companies continue to happily encourage them as long
as they have a consultant on their billing. Shouldn’t there be a law to
register a formal complaint against such companies and consultants’?
Does the government even care about these practices that happen right under
their noses? Or is the government just happy with the millions of dollars
USCIS generates issuing the Visa’s ? or the millions of dollars that gets
generated by students who pour in every year to do their masters. Reducing
the number of H1 visa’s issued every year, which is being discussed as part
of the political rhetoric is not a solution, but controlling how these
Visa holders are managed is the key.
As a community, what do we do? Do we keep quiet, accept the reality and do
the best we can?
A H1 consultant justifies his action by saying” if I don’t get a job, I
will be out of status and I have to go back to my home country. An OPT
candidate who manipulates the resume justifies by saying, “If I don’t get
a job, I will lose status and will be asked to go back” A H4 candidate who
has recently got a H4 EAD work status, justifies her resume saying “I have
been out of work for so long, I am desperate to get a job”.
So the client who pays hundreds of dollars probably gets a resource who is
not qualified, has been deceitful in his/her resume and during the interview
is the ultimate loser in the whole process. | o**********e
