This advert by Tesla for a Logistic Analyst in Singapore has got many Singaporean furious. Why is a position in Singapore required the applicant to be fluent in Hindi? Tesla's main production factory is in Shanghai, China, not India. It would not be contentious if the position is in India.  

And why Hindi and not Tamil? Could it be that the CEO or HR is a northern Indian? There is no reason for the inclusion of Hindi as a preferred language in this post. Hindi is not that well spoken in Singapore while Tamil is one of the 4 official languages. Maybe there are now too many northern Indians speaking Hindi in Singapore that we the ordinary folks did not know. So it is important for the applicants to be able to speak fluent Hindi to cater for the rich Hindi folks that are going to buy Tesla cars here.

Maybe should ask Elon Musk about this.

According to theindependent.sg, Netizens, especially Singaporeans are furious, up in arms against this discriminatory ads against Singaporeans.

PS. Posted this to show what is fair hiring and what is discriminating hiring against Singaporeans in Singapore.
