I'm sorry the recruiters lied to you. The H1-B and Green Card process is terrible enough without people BSing you about the reality of getting the visa in the first place.

Yes, I've been reading about people's experiences with visas all afternoon now, it does indeed seem quite different from what I've known.

To be honest though, I kind of wanted to believe. Breifly reading the visa requirements and being told the direct contrary was definitely concerning but I think I just put faith in the possibility of being an exception. Still possible, but now I know the likelihood. <1%.
