Questions

Does a sponsor licence mean this role is sponsored?

The filings show that the employer has sponsored before, not that it will sponsor this role. 38 of these 4,758 adverts say outright that they will.

What do the H-1B and green card numbers mean?

They count the Labor Condition Applications (the first step of an H-1B) and the PERM labor certifications (the first step of an employment green card) the employer filed in the last 12 and 24 months, from the US Department of Labor disclosure data.

What do these science and research roles pay?

2,563 of the 4,758 roles state the pay. The middle of their posted ranges is $133k a year (converted to US dollars).

How fresh is this?

Each register is reloaded when its publisher updates it (the US and UK files weekly, Canada every quarter), and every role is re-checked on the employer's own careers board at least every 48 hours. A role that closes leaves the page at the next nightly rebuild.
