How this is built
Employers. The USCIS H-1B Employer Data Hub for fiscal year 2026 (named employers with approval counts by petition type) joined to the IPEDS Institutional Characteristics directory from the National Center for Education Statistics by normalised legal name, corroborated by the last four digits of the EIN. Verified entries were checked by hand: legal entity identified, nonprofit status and full EIN confirmed against IRS filings, affiliation evidence located and linked. IPEDS match entries passed all automatic tests (name, EIN tail, match score 85 or better) but have not been individually reviewed.
What they hire. Occupations and median offered wages come from the Department of Labor's certified Labor Condition Applications for fiscal year 2025, grouped by employer and SOC occupation. An LCA is a step before a petition, so counts are an indication of hiring patterns, not of approvals.
Live openings. Collected nightly from each employer's own public career site or job feed, deduplicated, and linked back to the original posting. Only a few employers are connected so far; "not yet connected" means the feed has not been built, not that the employer is not hiring. Entries marked new appeared since the previous run.
What is missing. Only the first ground is close to complete. Affiliated nonprofits, research organizations and government bodies are still being verified, and an employer absent from this list is not necessarily cap-subject. A past filing record does not mean an employer is hiring today.
