That is racism.

  I didn't say they turn down foreigners, they just don't get applications from them. Also, Latvians and Ukrainians and such are white.

  Nationalism is a distinct "ism" from racism.

  Do you know what racism, or even race is? You can be white but not Estonian, how does racism apply there?

    What is "white"? Why do you need do differentiate "Estonians" from other kinds of people? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism#Ethnic_nationalism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism#Ethnic_nationalism There is a history of racism in Estonia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20th_Waffen_Grenadier_Division_of_the_SS_(1st_Estonian) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20th_Waffen_Grenadier_Division...

  It's not racism. On the contrary, what you have shown, is ignorance of the facts on the ground. They work with what they have available. Knowing Eastern European companies well, they are tight on funds, so they cannot spend anything for international headhunting. Also, locals are cheaper - if they want to earn more, they will move to the West. The smaller companies are happy, that they are surviving at all.
