I hesitate to label that "racist". Developing a feeling from interviewing engineers trained in India or China that they're generally not competent is not equivalent to feeling they're inherently stupid or bad people. They just came through a crummy education system.

I agree, as far as that. But it's racist to overgeneralize that feeling to ethnic Indians or Chinese who did not go through that system.
