The company could still figure out that he can't attend an on site interview and he's in Russia.
By the way, Russia is a particularly bad choice. Russians are not permitted to work in London, it's outside of Europe and there is no immigration agreement. The resume won't survive the first pass from HR.
- swyea 8y agoI don't think that's true. In my experience there are many Russians moving to London for software positions. The parent is also not Russian from what I understand.
- user5994461 8y agoThe company could sponsor a working VISA. It takes a fair amount of paperwork but it's doable. Remember that you're competing against 300 million Europeans who can move to and work in London overnight. You better have a great profile to be worth the hassle. Forget about low level roles and smaller companies. Let's ignore for a minute that the parent was not Russian. Having a Russian number is a red flag that the candidate may be abroad and not have the right to work in the UK. It's definitely screened out by HR.
- chrisseaton 8y agoWhy do you capitalise ‘VISA’? What do you think it’s an acronym for? It’s just an English word.
