Which Google Should Congress Believe?

Posted by Zonk on Friday July 20, 2007 @04:41AM from the playing-with-the-big-boys-now dept.

theodp writes "In Congressional testimony last month, Google's VP of People Operations told the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration that, due to limits on the number of H-1B visas, Google is regularly unable to pursue highly qualified candidates. But as Google stock tumbled in after hours trading Wednesday, Google's CEO blamed disappointing profits on a hiring binge and promised Wall Street analysts that the company would keep a careful eye on headcount in the future. So which Google should Congress believe?"

Last I checked, PhDs were not affected by H1B caps (at least, not those from all countries of origin), since there were other visa programs available for those with advanced degrees.
