Do you need H1B sponsorship? If so, you're screwed. If not, then you're in competition with a LOT of people. The developer market is over saturated in the US since coding became mainstream with Obama and stuff...Everyone is learning how to code these days. Coding has been hot for the last 40 years and it's only now that America sees where the money is. We, the developers, quietly cashed-out for so many years. Our secret is out and I don't think they'll ever bring in developers from over seas.

They'll hire someone locally who knows how to code and has a bit of experience. Companies have a handful of candidates applying to their crappy jobs in 2017. Supply >>> Demand. It reminds me 2008 minus the obvious recovery ahead.
