Adeoluwadrumz: Oh I see. The salary for that band won’t allow you to be sponsored. However if you could apply for band 3 HCA role, the salary meets the threshold for you to be sponsored. |

I am flying with airmaroc into Heathrow by next week. I am to carry some food stuff with me as well but I heard the NDLEA in our airports are refusing people from carrying Stockfish and some food stuff even medicine. How true can this be? |

Aphrodite007: No sweetie, I'm not belittling other people's experience. I made it clear in my post that I don't know if it's just me being lucky or if others are failing to do their homework. For a bit of background, I don't know many Nigerians in the UK aside from the ones in my school. Many of them that I speak with don't even have a clearly defined career plan and are always open to anything, which doesn't make sense to me, really. Most of them are doing their masters as a means to "japa" and not because they are truly passionate about the course and want to gain specialist skills in their area of endeavor. The UK has a very competitive job market, and the more specialized and niched you are, the higher your chances. You will really struggle if you are an average/regular candidate as an immigrant. Secondly, all big firms have sponsorship licenses, which means they can sponsor any candidate if they really want him/her. During all my interviews, I make it as clear as possible that my first option is the firm (I will give them reasons why I believe their firm and the UK in general will offer me access to the world). I then go on to make it clear that I am an international student and will not be able to stay back in the UK without visa sponsorship. I'm open to moving back home and continuing my stakeholder engagements." 3 Likes |

Focus99: For permanent roles most employers want you long term ... so if your visa doesn't have a long term path then they are hesitant to take you....because let say your visa is post study and they don't offer sponsorship what the point taking you when you have to stop in 2 years time... kind of pointless But if the job offers to sponsor (COS) then you are good to go if offered 1 Like |

profemebee: No. One doesn't need a transit visa when laying over at instabul but if the flight has 2 stops in Turkey, one at Instabul and Ataturk, which is on the European side, then a transit visa will be required for that particular stop |

I need advice please. I got an internship role in Development Engineering, to assist my employer with research on an ongoing project. My school will be the one paying my salary. The Job is for two and half months(10 weeks). The issue is that, I currently work in a care home(two nights per week). Doing the two jobs will make me exceed the 20hrs work restriction. I don't want to decline the internship role because I believe it will be good on my CV, but it's just for two and half months, neither can I quit the care job just for a short term job. God knows I need both salary. The pay on the internship is 1£ pound higher. And I have also been looking for an opening that will take me out care job. Please how do I approach this, because I am expected to resume the internship role next week. |
