I often wonder how rigorously the Immigration Dept. checks on this. I accept that they may ask for proof of a job search having been completed etc. but surely if a company really wants a certain individual from overseas they can probably fabricate some very unique skill set that just isn't providable by anybody else. My question then is this - as a permanent resident if you knew that a company was hiring for a position that you were perfectly capable of filling but which went to somebody non-resident - do you have any right to complain? And if you did - what would the likely repurcussions be for both yourself and the prospective employer?</p> http://www.batgung.com/node/4010#comments General employment permanent resident visa work Sun, 02 May 2010 09:50:33 +0000 Oldish China Hand 4010 at http://www.batgung.com
