...I think that lots of jobs are more on personality though and whether a person would 'fit' with a team/colleagues regardless of qualificatios etc and maybe other factors...and some could probably also be whether you know someone there..?...'by the law' that's not allowed we know but it does happen...anyway, I hope you didn't think that I was in someway being difficult or picky with you because I didn't mean to be ..I just think that in some jobs..(obviously not all..)..lesser academically qualified people would be on an equal par with everyone else...and therefore not necessarily unemployed for longer ...but yeah, I do see all of your points though and I'm always interested in reading your posts...
