    Probably not - you have someone whose CV may say they are more skilled but in reality you are not getting that.

    Do not really think this will change huge amounts - there have always been companies who are willing to pay peanuts, get monkeys and then complain about it - then you have companies that actually know what they are doing.

    But we shall see!

      Well, if enough immigrants come here, there's bound to be a few good/skilled ones.

      But will there be more good immigrants than there will be terrorists?

      We shall see.

        Surely they'll all be exceptionally skilled at doing the needful doings with 10 years experience of something that was released last year.
        When the fun stops, STOP.

          If certain immigrant workers are viewed with such admiration for their skills etc., why does anyone keep any IT workers onshore, when they could offshore it all now?

            You want them on site - off shore they could be doing work for other clients that's a lot harder to do when you can see their screens,
            merely at clientco for the entertainment

              you are deluded if you think the removing of the cap and lowering the salary requirement in these new immigration rules will do anything but
              • result in an absolutely huge influx of overseas IT workers.
              • put a limit on how much companies will pay for UK IT permanent roles
              • remove the need for a flexible uk workforce i.e. contractors



              the end.

                They could pretty much do this now.

                So no it won't result in that in the vast majority of cases as I said earlier those that think they can pay peanuts and get anything but monkeys will do the most complaining.

                Everyone else who knows the true value of qualify will spend the money to get the decent people.

                  Quality? You can't even spell the word!

                    would you care to quantify that?
