There are two important facts the writer has missed out in her article. Nationality and religion are also important criteria looked at in getting a job here in the Middle East. From just Qatar Living alone, you can easily gauge this importance of nationality when you get to see job ads with the words "Filipinos only" or "Filipinos preferred." The same is true with people of Kerala in India. While the Keralites have recently stopped using the "preference" words in their ads, on the ground the reality exists. The groups have an underground job mafia present. Whenever, such HR managers are unable to find someone in the market of his own nationality, he comes down to selection based on religion. Sometimes, it is just the religion that is one of the main criteria that gains attention. I am making the last statement based on ground realities that I have seen and not through what I have read in text books or hearsay.
