Will I be able to find a job in UK?
When we asked people about industries and career opportunities in UK, they reponded...
"There are not a lot of job opportunities in the town itself. I work in nearby Abingdon for a university campus, and my husband commuted to Oxford to work. Your best bet would be to look in Oxford for work. The BMW/ Mini plant is there along with the main university," remarked another expat who made the move to Wantage, UK.
"As I said, this is a major university town. There is also the main hospital for the county. Industries relating to technology have sprung up because of the skill level here. I would say that there are always jobs, both for skilled and unskilled workers. I think where London is an economic center, Cambridge is the technological center of the country," explained one expat living in Cambridge, UK.
