How would you claim I am not current? When I have just told you that my younger siblings have both just secure job and having visa processed?
You are trying to tell me that the big investment banks, Top 10-15 accountancy firms won't hire foreign graduates? My brother was short listed for 3 jobs with law firms and received one offer, I am not there but definitely the guy applied for graduate vacancies and the rules clearly state that any registered employed can hire any amount of foreign graduates that they want, so long as the job pay minimum £20,000.
Nothing in this is rocket science. There is a list on the government website that clearly states who you can work for and it contains thousand upon thousands of companies on that's list.
All one needs to do is, search for job and then make sure that this employer is on that approved list (here is that list) http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/employersandsponsors/pointsbasedsystem/pbsregisterofsponsors

For my sister it was more difficult but she went through recruitment agency, but she already had many years work experience and a masters so that is helping her, and all jobs she has applied for we're approved employers on that list.
All I am saying is go out and look for job, PSW or now PSW. All PSW did was give you an extra time to search, but any serious-minded career focused person, even nder PSW, wouldn't have taken job for less than 20k per year so the only difference that PSW cancellation makes is that one has to be quick to start applying.

In which way am I not current?

justwise:

pato405 has a point, getting a job after graduation as a foreign student is not as easy as you claimed, please tell us when those your brother and sister graduated.

my brother, help me talk to this guy, I'm just tired of arguing with him. I'll have to ignore him. Everyone knows that getting a job as a foreign student is NOT an easy task here in UK. He's making it sound like it's a piece of cake. most people who get jobs that pay them up to £20,000 get such jobs after MSc usually during the 2yr post study work. some expend the whole 2yr post study without getting it - then, they go back home or try another country.

now, the 2 yr post study work which usually gives them the grace to search for such jobs have been cancelled - meaning they must get such jobs while their Msc is on-going (first 12months) OR immediately after their Msc (the remaining 4months since they usually give 16months visa for a 1yr course). that is a herculean task. something that they find difficult doing in 40months (16 Msc + 24PSW) has now been reduced to 12/16 months (Msc only) to search for because PSW (24months) has been cancelled. this analysis is simple na.

Mr.Lu.Gold:


"justnotwise" i live in Abuja, Calabar and Lagos. Three places i'm prouder to say i live in than Camden or Central London or whatever metropolis in UK you live in that makes you feel you are more special than the dust i swept out of my office this morning. That's right! i said it Negro!!
