Zitat

Demanding 'local experience' doesn't guarantee the best person for the job, writes Karalyn Brown 'BILL Gates wouldn't get a job in Australia because he has no local experience," says Ailis Logan, the founder of Tribus Lingua, a consultancy assisting skilled migrants find jobs. Logan is only half joking. She believes that Australian employers value local experience much more than their counterparts in Europe and the US. For the many overseas professionals enticed here by the lure of a bountiful job market, the difficulty of finding a job without local experience is no joke. What does "no local experience" really mean? Are we so parochial that we'd reject Bill Gates if he sent us his resume? Do we run our businesses in a uniquely Australian way? Many of us will go overseas to work, valuing the career and life experience we bring back -- yet we appear to view the experience that others bring here with suspicion. Ian Little, the author of Project Australia: Land that Engineering Job in Australia, suggests our geographic isolation has contributed to our conservatism. As the senior engineering manager at engineering giant Worely Parsons, he's hired many overseas professionals. He believes that a lack of Australian experience is actually the biggest barrier any newcomer will face. Employers appear worried about the communication skills of skilled immigrants.

"Are we so parochial that we'd reject Bill Gates if he sent us his resume?"

Actually, yes.

Seriously though, this "local experience" stuff is about how well you can fit into a group. Australian companies are almost tribal.

And I believe that the conservatism isn't just due to the isolation, it goes back to the very roots of Australian culture: The convict society. The full effects of the convict society are neither properly taught or understood, because it doesn't look so good on the country's 'resume'.

If you can understood more about the convict culture you will understand the Australian 'egalitarianism', conservatism, dislike of authority, 'mateship', violence, sexism and alcoholism.
