England
Will I be able to find a job in UK?
When we asked people about industries and career opportunities in UK, they reponded...
"Foreigners often find jobs in service orientated roles such as hospitality, retail and tourism in England. They also commonly work in industries like technology, financial services, engineering, and manufacturing. Additionally, many foreign citizens find work in academia teaching foreign languages and in specialist roles in health and social care," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to UK.
"In London there are of course all types of jobs and numerous career opportunities no matter what field you're in. People find new jobs through a variety of modern ways, from the internet to newspapers to informal arrangements. A few good resources are: the Guardian and Evening Standard newspapers (especially the Guardian specialist job sections, printed weekly for different sectors). There are also quite a few recruitment agencies in London, a simple internet search will reveal dozens. They will not, however, work with someone who does not already have permission to work in the UK," commented one expat who made the move to London, UK.
