In the course of trying to find average pay information for a part-time position my church is developing, I ran across the T. Rowe Price job listings. They have over 100 jobs available, most in the greater Baltimore area but I did notice at least one in Virginia and one in London. Many of the jobs are geared toward helping their customers with financial planning or are administrative (Investment Counselor, Personal Services Specialist); there are a number as well for people in the computer industry such as Systems Security Engineer and Sr. Database Manager.
One in particular that caught my attention was "Systems Consultant – Mainframe / HP Exstream" in part because it was the only one I noticed with a salary listed. I believe that is because below the job description was this notice:
THIS NOTICE IS BEING POSTED AS A RESULT OF THE FILING OF AN APPLICATION FOR PERMANENT ALIEN LABOR CERTIFICATION FOR THE JOB OPPORTUNITY DESCRIBED ABOVE. ALL APPLICANTS SHOULD REPORT DIRECTLY TO THE EMPLOYER. ANY PERSON MAY PROVIDE DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE BEARING ON THE APPLICATION TO THE REGIONAL CERTIFYING OFFICER OF THEDEPARTMENT OF LABOR, AT THE FOLLOWING ADDRESSES:

So it appears that they may fill this with an H1-B applicant from another country if they can't find a qualified person in the US. Might that qualified person be YOU? The job pays a minimum of $96,000:
