Hey Guys, I was trying to apply for a position at IBM. I was putting in my information and there came a page where they require a candidate to put the country of their academic degree. I scrolled down to select Nepal for my master's (or US equivalent bachelor) degree. However, there was no Nepal in the list. India, Pakistan and so many country were on the list. Why they excluded Nepal? Even worse, there is no place to write down the name of a different country than that are listed. I felt real bad. Do they think Nepal is not a country or there is no university at all? or are they trying to exclude all Nepalis from applying to their openings? Looks like IBM is not an EOE. In either case, is it not a discrimination based on the national origin? Let's fight back against this discrimination. Let's sue IBM and get a lot of punitive damages. I was so stunned.

I think the reason why IBM didnt keep Nepal as its list of country for application is because Nepal don't have university classes that meet IBM requirements.Working with companies at USA is not a joke or easy task. There are systems and need to follow the definition. Company like IBM, INTEL, Microsoft Google needs a person who have studied the origin what they are studying..( I hope I am making sense :) ) .... I dont think its any discrimination or they forgot about it lol.. its just like if you have a software company at USA and a guy from Nepal who knows C++ applies for a job at your company who dont have a degree.. its unlike you will hire instead of a BS in CS person at USA... You want your company to grow.. and not keep on teaching the guy with all the terms and standards of programming etcs.. hope this helps..

McDonald was sued by an wise a** who dropped hot coffee on his/her groan, I am guessing it was his/her own fault but McDonald did not put the warning about hotness. Find out a lawyer if he/she takes your case then update us.
