Reply to: cheating in their exams?

I thought he was being ironic as it's not possible to compare apples to pairs.

Unless they're both pairs of apples.

Again completely the wrong comparison. Comparing every day corruption with international corporate goings on is hardly a comparison.

Reading the original article doesn't really explain how it is corrupt as the only people gaining are the students yet they're not bribing or threatening anyone. In fact you could in some ways compare it to politicians in that they expect to be wined and dined by big business, i.e. lobbied, and then further their interests for the general good, apparently, and once their political career has finished, to get a well compensated position with said businesses...

Look at BAE instead: BAE Systems - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The UK is hardly corruption free. Look at HMRC. Or the family courts.

Can't be that. Wage dumping is illegal.

Indeed, so illegal that it doesn't happen, ever, at all, honest.

Cost.

Indians appear cheaper.

Can't be hard - won't he be lying on a bed of nails?

But when the chaps with the fake degrees and the fake CV turn up in UK and try to bluff their way in, that is when it causes problems. If the interviewer isnt good, he will fail to spot the faker and by the time they realise what is going on, the project has died a death.

EU candidates (in Switzerland) have priority over non-EU. Why we couldn't find five suitable European candidates was never satisfactorily answered. I assume that my employer has the government in one of their pockets. It still seems it's harder for Yanks than Indians to get into the country.

When I had to interview chaps from InfoSys, we turned down most of their offerings. Eventually, after interviewing tens of candidates, we got five guys who were good. So good, that once they had their permanent residency permits, they set up their own consultancy and are doing rather well.

This makes me glum

Very true. The country is corrupt and the population face competition in all aspects of life just because of the burgeoning population which continues to expand relentlessly.

That's a completely different level. Comparing apples and pairs.

Don't you worry. We will get there.
