The “no friends or connections” comment isn’t true because they have a network already setup and if they aren’t interacting with the customer directly then why would they need to speak the local language?
I don’t blame the immigrants for their goals of a better life, it’s logical to take advantage of the situation. It’s also logical for the employer to take advantage of cheap labor. It’s also logical for me to offer something that the immigrants can’t to keep myself employed if I working the same field.
Ok, they may know people local, I’ll grant that. They need to speak local language to understand written instructions, to interact with co-workers, to understand what is needed for them to do.
I think your last point is the same as mine. You should offer something that is advantageous compared to an immigrant. You have a massive advantage. If you can’t do that it doesn’t matter since you definitely won’t be able to compete with natives with whom you don’t have a massive advantage.
