Recently I have had interviews whereby the interviewer had very limited grasp of the English language or the accent was indecipherable so very hard to understand any questions etc especially over a telephone. For two of these interviews the feedback has been that they cannot find anyone in the UK who is suitable - sounds like they only want to recruit someone who they can speak their mother tongue with because they cannot speak proper English themselves. I cannot believe that everyone in the UK is unsuitable.
The last one yesterday for a software house working for the IR.
I get the feeling that there is not a skills crisis as claimed but because some of us don't speak foreign langauges in our own country we are being discriminated against. I am sure it is not racial hatred but it just makes things easier for them - but none the less it does discriminate.
