This sharp decline coincides with widespread job cuts within these firms and is attributed to stricter U.S. immigration regulations and escalating hiring expenses. The trend indicates a strategic shift by Big Tech in their approach to international recruitment. Companies are likely re-evaluating their workforce strategies in response to increased operational costs and policy changes affecting foreign talent acquisition.
