Which is similar to the experience of my sister in law, a Thai national. Oddly though she was educated in the UK, but it seemingly counts for nothing (she had to return to Thailand).I was applying to jobs in UK and every recruiter told me we must first prove we dont have anyone as skilled in the UK, then from EU and finally everyone else as a third pool.
Brexit aside I think this sounds like a very damaging policy to get skilled labored in your country. America has dominated technology and medicine by letting in high skilled immigrants from anywhere throughout the previous decades.
Like many non EU citizens living in the UK, she doesn't no how long she will be able to stay.
Which is why the majority of non EU migrants leave within 5 years.
