Im hearing about alot of outsourcing on IT in the city data boards, is it true?

<p>A lot of Indians\Chinese are working for low wages and their outsourcing all the compsci/IT jobs. Im not really sure how true it is, as I heard it on city-data boards. So I want to know if this is true because I was thinking of getting some IT certs and working in the field for a few years than transition into something else (college) after I get cash. Otherwise ill get auto service technology degree.</p>

<p>But anyway are these rumors true? And if they are how bad is the problem? </p>

<p>All computer industry jobs aren’t being outsourced, but there are jobs that can be done by people who live outside of the US for less money that are. There are also people who are brought in from outside the US on various visas to work in the computer industry. In general, you should consider that for any computer industry job you apply for, there is potentially competition from people all over the world.</p>

<p>There is quite a bit of information online about this, written by people such as Ron Hira, Norm Matloff, and Vivek Wadhwa.</p>
