Yeah, it's racist to hire another more qualified candidate that can speak multiple languages in a setting that would benefit from that skill...

Idk about OP, but from my experience, you can speak German perfectly correctly, but have an accent, and that will make your job search many times harder, because they know you're not "German". I highly doubt this is about skill.

Clearly you must have all the details about where I worked and applied already. What an amazing ability!
