Question: As college students, you are either preparing to enter the workforce or furthering your education to improve your marketability as an employee. Undoubtedly, you are anxious about your future career prospects. In your readings this week, you have come to realize that organizations rely heavily on overseas talent to fill positions, primarily when it comes IT jobs. Reflect on this by answering the following questions:

• Describe some of the pros and cons of organizations utilizing H-1B visa workers and relying on outsourcing to fill certain positions? How will recent trends in the increase of teleworking (i.e. remote work or telecommuting) play a role?
• What obligation do U.S. corporations have to the American worker and how might abuse to the H-1B worker program conflict with that responsibility? Is it unethical for a company to game the system to decrease costs, even if no laws are broken? Why or why not?
• Considering your own future as a potential IT worker, what advice would you give to corporate America to foster homegrown talent and encourage a sense of duty for improving the lives and career prospects of the U.S. workforce? Or should organizations instead be concerned with ethical employment practices around the world rather than focusing only on their home country?
• Your post must follow APA7 format and must include at least two sources (one from your textbook and one outside source) to support your position or strengthen your arguments.
• In response to your peers, review your classmates' posts and express support or disagreement. You are required to comment on at least three other students' posts. Use the RISE model for providing feedback, constructing responses that foster discussion and reflection. Your grade will be based on the content and quality of all your discussion board posts.
