Thanks for the roadmap to 2026!

The biggest takeaway for me is this: what feels like job security on employer-sponsored visas is actually conditional. In today’s tech landscape, that’s a real risk.

Also, the focus on documenting your impact (not just doing the work) is key. Many people are already qualified, they just lack structured visibility.

Bottom line: don’t wait for a crisis to take control of your mobility.
