Thanks for the response. From the replies, it is evident that this subject touches some raw nerves!
I wanted to run that small experiment as a way of showing that the shortage of engineers is overstated (a common refrain in the H1-B visa debates). I am not sure if Google is one of the companies that says they can't find qualified engineers. Many peer companies to Google do say that. Having a very high false negative rate is something that should be taken into account with the current visa debates.
