What the numbers show

Fiscal years are shown side by side above rather than as a year-over-year change. Employers sometimes appear in this federal data under a slightly different legal name from one year to the next, so comparing a single name across years can reflect a renaming rather than a real change in hiring.

Across all years, 100% of decided petitions were approved.

Most petitions list BLUE ASH, OH.

Filed under Retail Trade in the federal data.

By petition volume this is the 14th largest of 17 H-1B filers we track in Ohio, and the 27th of 32 in Retail Trade.

These are petition counts from federal filings, not job openings. They describe what was approved in past fiscal years and do not indicate current vacancies.
