Lowest H1B Visa filings in the last 6 years

  I was reading an article on USCIS website and other websites, unfortunately, this year has the lowest number of H1B visa filings since 2003. It clearly shows how deep trouble internationals are stuck with job situation. Lot of students on F1 visas are not able to find potential employers to sponsor visas. They are pursuing another Masters to keep the status and working part time.  In fact, the cap has reached for advanced degree filing i.e. Masters quota. As of Oct 30, there have been 53,800  cases filed.
