Indian IT suppliers to double their UK slice of the pie

[PAH]

And more fake stories about skills shortages.

There is a skills shortage. Just like the job centre is full of jobs. It only takes a few more years of outsourcing to Asia and importing cheap IT labour for IT to sink below the chav poverty line, where it'll be more appealing for us to claim benefits than sit in an office run by cretins, doing 40 hours a week after a two hour commute, for barely more than the minimum wage.

Shame I look a right coont in a shell-suite or I'd be laughing instead of crying.

Don't get me started on the crepe we get from Wipro.

gonna cost us dear to mop up their mess....... both financially, and emotionally!

Maybe there are agencies out there offering to rectify all the tizwas after the indians have scalped the place, supplying bonafide top-notch contractors. On second thoughts, maybe not, none have contracted me yet.

This means plenty of more work permits under the transfer category being issued. Get ready for even more "fake" job adverts.

Well, I'm getting on a bit. I think I may just retire. My wife has a open PA job in her legal practise at 11K pa. that should do me just fine.

India's five largest IT services suppliers will double their market share in the UK by 2011.

It must be true as this prediction was made by that well known outfit Pierre Audoin Consultants (PAC). Gartner have a less then 1% success rate with their predictions so I guess they may improve on that.

India's five largest IT services suppliers will double their market share in the UK by 2011.

India's top five services companies - HCL, Infosys, Satyam, TCS and Wipro - are on course to grow their share of the UK software and IT services market from just under three per cent to seven per cent over the next three years, according to consulting group Pierre Audoin Consultants (PAC).


Perhaps Gordon Brown (the UK tax payer) won't have to send millions in aid to India in this case.
