The route exists. The hard part is being the one who actually walks it.
Shortage lists change quarter to quarter, quotas fill, and employers move on the candidates who are ready first. We don't hand you a form and wish you luck, we position your profile, time it right, and open the door before the window shifts. The people who make it are the ones who move now.
