EEOC Sues Sibitalent Corp. for Alleged H-1B-Only Hiring Preference
HR Dive · United States · Oct 12, 2026
The EEOC filed a lawsuit against Sibitalent Corp., a technology sector employment agency, alleging it openly preferred to hire only H-1B visa holders, with one California job seeker reportedly receiving a job posting marked 'ONLY H1B.' The agency has been increasingly focused on national origin discrimination cases, particularly those disadvantaging U.S. workers. Staffing firms that place or recruit H-1B workers should review their job postings and client requirements carefully, as EEOC enforcement activity in this area is intensifying.
