Because the applicant wasn't qualified to do it. H1B is not a jobs training program, but they were trying to use it as one.

The US has a jobs training program for foreign workers/grads. It's called OPT.

That's abuse.

"weren't qualified"

LOL. You don't know what you are talking about at all.

I have a degree in physics but I have been programming since I was 10. From what I can tell, my programming skills and experience are no less than someone who graduated with a master in CS at a major university.

This is called -- prejudice.

prejudice--against what? Genuinely curious.
"Qualified" by whom? By universities? Fortunately, in SE the code talks loud and clear, and discriminatory rent seekers need to invoke the violence monopoly to get their way.
