In the US, employers must disclose the wage of every worker they sponsor. Elsewhere, governments publish who is licensed to sponsor. All of it sits in spreadsheets nobody opens. We open them.

You can read a job description all day and still not know the two things that decide whether it's worth your time.
Not "we may consider candidates requiring sponsorship." Whether they filed, how many times, and how recently.
02The filed wage, not a range someone typed into a salary site. Employers sign these under penalty of perjury.
03A company can sponsor heavily for engineers and never for designers. The filings tell you which door is open.
04Sponsorship clusters by city, and it moves. The map today is not the map from three years ago.
05Three live so far — US, UK and Canada — each on the numbers its government actually publishes.
06How sponsorship, the cap and the lottery work — and how to use the data to apply smarter.
Every figure below is counted from 190,152 certified H-1B labor condition applications in the most recent published quarter, FY2026 Q2.

No estimates, no crowdsourcing, no scraped salary guesses. Only what governments publish and employers signed.
Sponsored roles draw hundreds of applicants, and most are filtered by tracking software before a person reads them. EvoResume builds an ATS-ready resume with you free, and its checker scores how cleanly yours parses and shows what to fix — so you fix it before you apply, not after.
