The economic recovery in the
pandemic has caused significant strain for employers in search of key
talent. The U.S. government's response to COVID-19 has erected an array of
barriers to sourcing their talent including evolving legal barriers to travel
and administrative processing barriers. Tune in as Scott Borene and George
Maxwell discuss everything from common options and solutions for employers in
search of talent including the current and upcoming H1B lottery as well as the
impact on those options of the most recent October 25th Presidential
Proclamation and CDC order on international travel to the United States, which
will go into effect on November 8th.
