Say i was applying for an apprenticeship at a brewery in Scotland. What are the chances that i would be completelt written off for being American?

Not Budd...calling it NOW

On a scale from 1 to 10 I'd say about a Bud Light.

Lol i know its a long shot, just was curious if my resume would be discarded immediately.

Wikey is closer to that part of the country. I tend to see Scotland as being really ridiculously insular and nationalistic.

If it was in London you'd be given the job because you're American and we must be diverse.

Loooool maybe ill job hunt in london then.

I would say it depends where in Scotland.

I would say that the further north it is the less chance you would have.

Its near aberdeen. Not too familiar with Scotland's map

Tell them how good their haggis is

Yesiamsurethisisagoodidea

They are very proud of their haggis. It will flatter and charm them

The Aberdeen locals will probably lynch you.

To be honest, just because I am further up North than anyone else from the UK, I know just as much as Paul on the matter, if not less. But my northern pride didn't allow me to admit it.

I have been to Scotland once, and the furthest I went was Perth. Perth was a nice place, very friendly atmosphere and not unlike an above average English town. Aberdeen is further up North but it is on the coast, so I am guessing that it isn't that insular. I'm making the assumption that any place with a port is more open to new folk.
