    The whole thing will continue unfortunately until US Workers make a stand against it ( its their IT Companies that are the most enthusiastic about these "intra-group transfers" from Asia to UK ). The UK has to go along with it.The EU Wont help us.

    [QUOTE=Liability;862315]Alot of Indian companies are finding it hard to place there gimps at UK Companies due to a slow down and change in visas being given to the Indians.

    I have had calls plenty - last one was for Wipro last Thursday - Architect - ready? £300 a day?!!!? LOL.


    Yes they have got their foot in the Belgian market as well offering €350 a day
    which at 60% tax+Soc Security , the £300 a day would be better.
    I accepted an telephone interview just as an experiment.
    In the long run I am glad I didn't get the contract.

    At the end of the interview I still wasn't exactly sure what the actual role
    was. After I put the phone down I felt like I had been interviewed by the Police.Lots of theoretical questions like how whould I do this or that.
    I have a lot of experience of American or European interviews as I have always worked for European or American companies.

    If my interview was typical of Indian Interviews then I will need to buy a some
    book called "How to be successful at Indian Interviews"

    Are they just appearing to advertise them for Visa reasons (has anyone actually got an interview with them ?)

    What evidence do they need to provide to prove that a EU Resource cannot
    fill the job ?


    Thanks.
