Possibly an interesting catch-22 with regards to certain contracts’ requirements.

It means a whole lot of wasted time (on both sides) interviewing people for jobs they never had a real chance at getting

Why would a refugee or asylum seeker "never have a chance" at getting hired by a company like SpaceX? Seems like that is part of the problem, no?

I can’t tell if you are assuming immigrants apply for jobs they aren’t qualified for or implying that spaceX will not hire immigrants

I'm saying it's common practice for companies in the US to "consider" candidates they have no intention of actually considering, because they already know who they want (or what 'type' of person they want) and that these are hoops companies jump through that don't end up doing the things people expected the hoops to do.

Do you have to interview a person or just look at their resume to “consider” them?
