Compare Employers
Compare up to three H-1B, E-3, and H-1B1 sponsors side-by-side. See LCA filing volume, approval rates, average wages, top job roles, and wage level distribution from 250K+ employers in the DOL OFLC disclosure database. Useful when evaluating job offers or researching sponsorship patterns across competitors.
How This Tool Works
Search for up to three employers using the search bar. As you type, matching employers appear in a dropdown. Select each employer to add it as a chip below the search bar. Once you have two or three employers selected, click the Compare button. The tool fetches LCA filing history, average certified wage, approval rate, top job roles, and wage level distribution for each employer. Results appear as side-by-side cards so you can quickly spot differences in filing volume, wage levels, and sponsorship patterns.
What the Data Covers
Data includes all LCA filings from 250K+ employers across H-1B, H-1B1, and E-3 visa categories. Filing counts, certified vs. denied decisions, wage data, and job classifications are aggregated from DOL OFLC public disclosure files (2020 to present). Wage level distribution shows how an employer's filings break down across the four DOL prevailing wage tiers, from entry-level (Level 1) to fully competent (Level 4).

Data Source & Methodology
All data is sourced from the U.S. Department of Labor Office of Foreign Labor Certification (DOL OFLC) public disclosure files. Filing counts, approval rates, and wage statistics are calculated from certified and denied LCA decisions. Top job roles are derived from SOC occupation codes attached to each filing. Wage level distribution reflects the DOL prevailing wage tier assigned to each LCA. Data is updated quarterly as new disclosure files become available.
An LCA filing is not the same as an H-1B petition approval. LCAs are the first step and are rarely denied. Actual H-1B approval happens at USCIS, and those numbers are not included in this comparison. LCA filings represent applications submitted to the DOL, not approved H-1B petitions or final visa outcomes.
