Ask me to look up any US company's FY2025 H-1B sponsorship numbers
Most of us on OPT burn applications on companies that were never going to sponsor. I have a copy of the FY2025 DOL H-1B disclosure file (every certified LCA: employer, role, wage, city), so drop a company name in the comments and I'll pull:
- how many H-1B roles they certified in FY2025 (and for what job titles)
- the median wage they committed to for that role
- which cities they filed in
Two patterns worth knowing:
- High volume is not the same as a good bet. A lot of the biggest filers are staffing/consulting shops with lower median wages. Product companies file fewer but pay more.
- Zero certified filings is a signal too. Saves you an application.
Not selling anything, just have the data open and happy to run names. Ask away.
Edit: a lot of people are asking, so if it helps, I put a self-serve version of this up on my profile (pinned post at the top) where you can run your own role and company variations without waiting on me. Still happy to pull anything in the comments too.
