How do I find US employers that sponsor H-1B?

Use the public data: the US Department of Labor publishes LCA disclosure files, and several free sites let you search which companies filed H-1B petitions, for which roles and salaries. Target employers with a real, recent filing history rather than asking cold. Larger tech, consulting, finance and healthcare firms sponsor most. One hard rule: never pay an employer or agent for sponsorship — that arrangement is illegal and a common scam aimed at desperate applicants.
