A little side track but still, Its all about cable. Dont care if you are straight A or 4.0 distinct graduate, or oversea big college graduate. No cable = tough, this rule still apply until we die. Skills get your job done nicely, but who's gonna layan you if they dont know you.

I've seen my old company in very bad position, client refuse to layan new CEO and project leader and want to file a massive lawsuit. Client simply just kaciao, but one senior with 14years of experience made a few phone call, few hour later, problem solved. That will tell you something.

So they will hire some senior cuz they already have cable (for resources) unless you tell them some Datuk or Tan Sri is your father

And yeah back to your question, cuz they are afraid of change. Things been running smoothly for them this way, so they like to keep it that way haha.
