Points For Honesty: UK Tech Firm Says "Only Immigrants From India Will Be Considered" In DevOps Want Ad
UK tech firm Avantao Technologies has apologized after posting a job ad stating “only candidates who are immigrants from India will be considered”, according to the Daily Mail.
The listing, for a DevOps engineer role in Ilford, also asked visa-related questions like “What is your native country?” and “Are you seeking sponsorship for employment in the UK?”
The Daily Mail report says that the company claims the ad was a staff training "test" that was mistakenly published. Sure.
“Unfortunately, that has been published, and we are unable to retract it because it was a mistake made by the employee who posted it live and then departed on holiday,” a spokesperson told MailOnline.
“We are very sorry to hear that this has occurred... a mistake is a mistake, and we have taken action against the individual... we genuinely apologise.”
Avantao has offices in Hyderabad, Bangalore, and New Jersey. Chitra Ranjeeth serves as the director of the Ilford branch, which operates out of a shared business center in London alongside various other unrelated businesses.
No one was hired, and the advert expired on March 24.
