I was wondering why is that dhotis consulting companies only offer job with contract. why can't they offer permanent jobs with the same criteria such as H1 processing or H1 trasfer or greencard process and 75/25 % or whatever? In my opinion, there are few reasons they do so : 1. Most permanent jobs require GC or citizenship 2. Most permanent jobs are competitive because americans also apply for these jobs rather than 6 months contract job. 3.Dhotis hold H1B but other companies do not 4.May be companies who have permanent jobs have payment system where they pay directly to employee not dhoti. Well, I can only think of above reasons so far. Please analyze them or add your opinions about it. I want to be clear on this. Also, american staffing firms do have permanent opportunities for job seekers who need H1 also ? How is that possible for them? Thanks for your any input.
