#1 In the new system, federal regulators will be checking to see that companies are keeping diversity data on all applicants, according to a new, more uniform definition of "applicant."

It't the regulator man again Helen, the dog has him cornered out by the pig pen, get my shotgun he's a gone'r this time!

#2 That "expression of interest" must show that he or she has all the qualifications for the job listed in the company's job description (not just some or most of them) -- and those qualifications must be specific and measurable.

I smell 1HB visas here. Supervisors and personnel offices write up some outrageous job technical descriptions to preclude hiring 'American'. So when no one meets their extreme want list, they use that as a justification to hire out. Of course, there is no follow up by the 'regulators' to insure that the qualifications of the imported labor is an exact match or superior to the original post.

Business could train up personnel but that requires an investment and to secure that investment, they have to have binding contracts. They don't want to do that because the individual becomes a liability rather than an asset on their books. So they play this game.

#3 Hmmm doesn't have 10 years of .Net, 10 years of J2EE, or 5 years of Windows Vista experience. Guess we've got to hire an H1B.

#5 In other words, no more crazy Irish crackers will be considered. Only "people of color", until the quota is filled?
