You are questioning all of my premises, but you haven't answered my main question: could I be responsible if I use a recruiter who is not authorized to work in the US? For the sake of this question, let's assume that the recruiter is outside the US law, but an employer, wittingly or not, signed a contract with them. Would be afoul of any laws if I got hired through such a recruiter? | |
