Norton Rose struggles to get visas for trainees under UK immigration cap

Norton Rose has had problems getting work visas for new interns and trainees under a new UK immigration cap. Firms have been given lower quotas for the work permits that enable them to hire non-EU migrants. Any firms that obtained six or more UK work permits between July 2009 and March 2010 have been told they are now allowed 15 per cent fewer Tier 2 visas. The news is causing some concern at Norton Rose, which has strong links with Indian universities and conducts recruitment runs to India to select top talent for the firm.
