Why Kannadigas are being discriminated in IT industry?
Ans. The answer to this question is simple. The key positions (senior & middle management and HR) in these IT industries are in the hands of non-kannadigas who simply favour their own state candidates, against Kannadiga candidates. For example a Tamilian Project Manager prefers a Tamil person for an open position in his team and gets internal references from his fellow Tamilian team members and colleagues. If he doesn t get a suitable Tamilian candidate internally he decides for external reference by way of IT Consultants and shortlists only Tamilian candidates. He rejects Kannadiga Candidates referred by IT consultants even if he suits the job. The same is true for a Telugu Manager, Bengali Manager or a Keralite Manager or any North Indian Manager. The key positions in HR are also held by these non-kannadigas who show discriminatory attitude against Kannadigas. Thus kannadigas are getting unfair and unjust treatment in IT Industry.
