Most of them have stopped hiring any peeps at all.

Unless you’re already stuck in this madness, why would you even want to move here right now?
Maybe we are. But I don’t think the Muslim or Catholic Indian is laughing at having to return to a country taken over by Hindu nationalists. Nor is anyone from Armenia with what’s going on over there. And I personally know a Venezuelan who is doing everything she can to stay here because her family is telling her horror stories about what’s happening right now.
Yeah you see a lot of posts saying they will not sponsor visas.

Had another agency telling me that they could sponsor my visa (even though they don’t need to) so don’t think it’s impossible. If that doesn’t work out you can always sponsor it yourself and try to get a freelance visa
If you go this route, get a VERY GOOD immigration attorney. Do not cut corners here. There is so much in flux with green cards and immigration right now, so you need someone who’s really on top of it.

I’m international and just got hired, but they also didn’t need to sponsor my visa
Most will not sponsor a visa right now unless it’s verrrrry extenuating circumstances.
A lot of good folks are looking for jobs right now, so the market is very competitive. Throw in all the unknowns about immigration changes if Trump wins another term, and it sucks.
I don’t need visa sponsorship but I have this feeling that they’re tossing out my cv because a) I don’t have a common western name and b) my contact details at the moment are of my home country. I state that I don’t need visa but I suspect they don’t go that far.
