=============
Case law suggests that non-US citizens who want green cards need about two years of work experience even if they have a bachelor's degree. Work experience with an applicant's first employer, however, is considered on-the-job training and does not count.
So, if you have an employee working for you on an H-1B visa who has just graduated from a US university and you want to get that employee a green card, you can't. Employees who want to stay in the country on a more permanent basis have to change jobs; time served at their first employers counts only toward green-card status after they've taken a job with a second employer.
