Is this a double standard? - Straight Dope Message Board

In many jobs, oral English is not a main part of the requirements. Technical writing and basic proper English grammar are far more important. The stress of an interview, while it may be the same in everyone, will show in non-native speakers by making mistakes more frequently than a native speaker would. Interviewers know this. If oral skills are not as important as their written ones, the gaffes will be more easily forgiven in a foreigner.

I'm talking about mistakes like pronunciation, verb conjugation, and proper use of various articles, adjectives, adverbs, and conjunctions.
