What this number is
It counts H-1B petitions approved for this employer in fiscal year 2023, from public federal filing records. It is a record of what happened, not a forecast. A company that filed hundreds of petitions last year can still decline to sponsor the specific role you are applying for, and a company with a small count can sponsor readily in the right team. Use it to decide where it is worth spending an hour applying, then confirm with the employer.
