Are there not enough accountants in the US that Illinois has to import Indians?

Seriously. I'm going through a sales tax audit at work with the state of Illinois and the dude is straight up "hello this is Rajesh" Indian. How the hell does that happen? Do we need to issue more H1B visas for accountants too?

my bet is that they outsource to one of the big 5 accounting firms, who then in turn outsource to one of the big Indian consulting shops. I'd guess you weren't even talking to someone in America

I met the dude. He's based in Houston and came by the office. Don't ask me to pronounce his name.

I have heard talk of this for years. Bring in skilled and engineering positions to basically lower the pay scale for these positions. Haven't heard accountants but would not surprise me at all.
