Did Vineet Nayar, the Indian CEO of HCL do justice to Indian software professionals by calling Americans unemployable?
Some in America took his words out of context. But is it really worth spending time in creating controversies?
This is what job destruction newsletter circulating in America via email is saying:
Vineet Nayar, an Indian CEO of the bodyshop HCL, said that Americans who graduate from our universities are unemployable. He feels that students "from developing countries" like India are superior employees in part because they aren''t obsessed with getting rich quickly. In other words, he won''t hire American grads because they are too expensive.
HCL hires Indians almost exclusively, so it's safe to assume that Nayar's disparaging comments don''t just apply to our young college graduates – he thinks ALL Americans are unemployable. Nayar's statements were racist and bigoted but they certainly weren''t any different than things that have been said by American CEOs or by our politicians.
The second article was published by Forbes, and based on a study by Manpower, is making the rounds on the Internet and in newspapers. It says that despite an accelerating unemployment rate employers still can''t find enough engineers. According to this article the shortage of engineers is so drastic that undergrads are getting six figure starting salaries.
So, if American engineering grads are truly unemployable as Nayar contends, just how can Manpower be right that they be getting such high salary offers? Oops! The answer must be that only Indian undergrads are getting those dream jobs. LOL!
No matter what, it was not good for Vineet Nayar to ignite the fire with a spark no matter how small the spark is!
