source chosen by the employer is applicable and/or acceptable. |

Must the employer obtain a prevailing wage determination before the employer begins recruitment? | | | |
| | No, the employer does not need to wait until it receives a prevailing wage determination before beginning recruitment. However, the employer must be aware that in its recruiting process, which includes providing a notice of filing
stating the rate of pay, the employer is not permitted to offer a wage rate lower than the prevailing wage rate. Similarly, during the recruitment process, the employer may not make an offer lower than the prevailing wage to a U.S. worker. |
