Tip 5 - Go for the Job Regardless of the Required Skills

"If you like the job description go for it regardless if you have the technical skills or not. Most likely you will get a functional manager who conducts the interview and manages you. You will be able to easily fool the functional manager in to thinking that you are an expert in the required skill set.

Another myth that gets spread is that when 100 engineering type jobs appear, only about 70 can be filled by Americans and the remaining 30 have to be filled by foreigners; this is completely false as the 100 jobs can be filled entirely by qualified and educated Americans without having to resort to hiring foreigners at all! The myth is used by corporations to create the anti-American Jim Crow type of hiring conditions that are used to "ship jobs overseas" because "Americans can't be found who can do the work" (this is a complete lie).
