Some skilled people from the UK are lucky enough to find employment, if they win the lottery of getting a response to their applications, but it is a fact that some employers appear to favour foreign workers over British workers. There could be varying reasons for this, I have heard quite a few British employers saying foreign workers are better timekeepers. I personally don't agree with that as I have known many people who are very good timekeepers and are British and the poor timekeepers are in the minority, only in my own experience, I cannot comment for anyone else.
