UK professional qualifications not recognised in the EU?

[scooterscot]

Anyone else getting this? Got an agent now suggesting my UK degrees would not be recognised by a EU based client And that only EU based universities are omitted from the requirement.

Is this a random agent BS? First I've heard of it, and a worry if so. I've heard this plenty from US colleagues coming over to Germany having to retrain, but never coming from the UK.

Much more likely to be something specific to you personally. Word has probably leaked out about what a gormless trumpet you really are.

Forget what I said about Scottish independence, I think it's a great idea.

Nah....he'll never get enough points on the admission checker. Maybe he could get sponsored by some venture capitalist start-up desperate for traffic cones.

Do EU clients insist on degree qualifications for IT contract roles? If so, it turns out I haven't lost out on 'freedom of movement' after all. Technical qualifications are universal (my MS ones are, anyway). Or is this random Scooty BS?

And just like that, he's got himself a Desmond in Computer Science from Nuremburg Poly. Where's Beansey when we really need him...?
