    Highly Skilled Immigrants

    Probably not going as planned: https://economicgraph.linkedin.com/r...-uk-april-2018

    Nearly a third (28%) of recruiters think the UK has become less attractive to candidates from the rest of the world – it appears that the perception that Britain is a place to advance your career has faltered.
    ...
    London’s access to talent is declining as the capital is now losing talent to other countries. Since the referendum, the net inflow of EU talent into London has reversed and now more people in London are relocating in the EU27 than vice versa.
    ...
    In Q1 2018 the UK became a net exporter of talent.
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

      You're an embodiment of the 3rd rate-ness of the UK.

      I'm pretty sure people will start giving a fook when the tax take from the leaving highly paid falls and (further) cuts have to be made.

        Where's the links to support your unsubstantiated assertions?

        The article doesn't mention highly-paid, or tax-take.

        It does say, however, "The UK is still importing talent, but at a lower rate."

        Thus, undermining at least 1 of your assertions.

          looking at hiring and professional migration trends in the UK
          Unless they're talking about professional chicken stuffers and strawberry pickers

          seven sectors (corporate services, finance/banking, software & IT services, manufacturing, media & communications, public sector, retail)
          But you probably didn't read it

            But you probably didn't read it
            "Finance continues to be the strongest hiring sector in London, followed by Software & IT Services, and Corporate Services."

            &

            "Hiring activity in the South East was strongest in Software & IT, Corporate Services and Finance."

            Did you read it?



            So again, Link(s) please to support assertions (I know they were spasguru's, not yours) - otherwise it's just one brainfart of many....

              Corporate Services sector registered a decline in its S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in March of 7%.

              The S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in the Software and IT Services sector fell by 5% in March

              Hiring in Hardware and Networking saw a fall in the S.A. MoM Hiring Rate of 3%

              The S.A. MoM rate for Manufacturing dipped by 3% in March continuing the decline registered in the previous month

              Construction saw a fall in the S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in March (down 2%) continuing the 1% decline in February

              The Media and Comms sector saw a 2% fall in the S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in March continuing the weak performance of previous months


              Hiring in Education registered a 5% growth in the S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in March, which reversed a 6% fall in February and placed it at the top of the table among all the sectors that returned significant data

              Public Administration saw the S.A. MoM Hiring Rate rise 4% in March, reversing a 6% fall in February


              The Entertainment sector has fallen back, after a pick up in February, with a 7% decline in the S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in March

              Healthcare saw a continuing fall in the S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in March of 1%. Notably, recruitment and HR professionals say they are seeing the biggest impact of declining international talent on this sector


              Despite its prominent role among the top hiring sectors in several regions of the country, S.A. hiring in Finance remains sluggish overall, rising MoM by just 1% in March, reversing a 3% fall in February

              Hiring in the Legal sector maintained its slow recovery in March, with a MoM Hiring Rate edging up by 2% after 5% growth in February and 2% growth in January

              Hiring in the Consumer Goods sector was up 4% MoM in March

              Hiring in the Retail sector continues to stand still, with no change in the S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in March

              The S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in the Nonprofit sector grew 3% in March

              The Design sector achieved modest 1% growth in the S.A. MoM Hiring Rate in March


              Although some areas look reasonably good, they're not exactly the ones which are going to help grow the economy

                Good grief all that blurb and not one mention of highly-paid people, tax-take, etc.....


                Also, something to think on;
                LinkedIn only has profiles for 74% of the employed workforce (and that assumes genuine, 1 per person and not spam/scammers).
                So it doesn't have a complete picture.

                LinkedIn also obtained 'insight' from a collection of pimps.
                Pimps aren't always used for hiring people.


                So, still waiting for the evidence behind the assertions (which I assume you now agree with, since you've picked up the baton from spas?)

                  Brexit morons on here think that reduction in pool of foreign workers will push their rates up. Wrong - it will result in reduction of investment and thus demand for such work in the first place.

                  In our own experience academia already hit big time - we struggled to find candidate for a research project part funded by Govt, took 9 months almost max allowed period of time.

                    It could, but nothing is certain. Many factors will affect this, but for you to unilaterally declare it completely wrong just shows your own naivety, as opposed to Brexiteers

                    How many organisation does 'your' experience cover? One? and what was it - just 1 position?

                    Wow, the sheer scale of your recruitment drive is overwhelming, we all better have a sit down and a cuppa - it's a shame it isn't just an example of how you are scaling up your personal experience of 1 role for 1 org, and calling it 'academia'
