H-1B Lottery Can Kill Your Engineering Career

H-1B visa selection can make an engineering career impossible to plan, even when the job offer is real. When registrations exceed the annual cap, USCIS uses a lottery—not merit—to decide who gets a chance. The threat is not AI replacing engineers; it is a random draw deciding who can accept the job, move, or stay in the US. Is that talent selection or career roulette? Pick a side in the comments—and send this to someone still calling H-1B meritocracy.
