Working In India

Ranjan Banerji

A lot of companies in the US have experience in hiring foreigners. It is illegal for a foregner to work in the US too, i.e., unless they have a permit. Most companies in India have never hired a foreigner and therefore would state the illegal part first before realizing that there is a permit process that can make it legal.

He'd probably need a work permit to work here legally and considering that not too many people move to India for work, I am not sure that India issues anything more than a very small number of work permits per year. Perhaps this is a reason why not many foreigners are found here. Nish

Unfortunately, there is no decent replacement term.

Think of the term "American" as the short version of "United States of American". :-) But I know what you're saying, most Americans consider "America" synonymous with "USA". Again, it comes from the word "America" being part of the country name. But I think we all know that technically speaking, America is one big continent. Regards, Alvaro

Hey! It compiles! Ship it.

Yeah, but it's a lot closer to the truth. :-D Chris Meech If you spin a Chinese person around, do they become dis-oriented? Why do people in this time period worry so much about time traveler's destroying their worldline when they have no problem doing it themselves every day? John Titor.

For me, its fascinating that an American asks about coming to India for job. Seems time is changing drastically.. Huh??? Reverse Braindrain ??? Regards. NetPointer
