IsJustGrace: With respect to the application, English should be your first language except you are not sure of yourself. Just answer Yes and move on. You don't need IELTS to successfully register with HCPC from Nigeria. 2 Likes |

dilodavid: Here is a link about occupations in demand. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/immigration-rules-appendix-k-shortage-occupation-list I belong to one of the professions regulated by HCPC. While my occupation is actually not on the shortage occupation list, I was still offered a job. This means that it's possible to get a job in the UK even if your occupation is not on the shortage list. |

seyisanya: Hello, This largely depends on the profession. For me, my Nigerian degree certificate was assessed and found equivalent to a UK degree. |

Horlaidey007: I am so sorry I am not well informed about the UK tourist/visa category. Quite sure the gurus in the house will help you on this. My apologies sir... |

Horlaidey007: Hello, Have you checked the UK shortage occupation list? If the job titles quoted above are on the list, then you stand a very good chance to migrate to the UK on the Tier 2 visa route. However, you may need to apply for jobs in the UK while you also have relevant qualifications/certifications/registration to back up the application. Thanks. |

Zi: While I don't have much information about engineering occupations as I'm in a different sector, I am sure there are some professional engineering instituitions/agencies. I suggest you find out about Engineering Council in UK (you may google it) . You may kick-start your search from there. This link may as well be helpful. https://www.engc.org.uk/international-activity/access-to-practise-in-the-uk/ I hope certified UK engineers in the house can also be of help. Good luck Boss |

Zi: Your occupation skill will determine what steps to take. However, there are some general guidelines to follow: 1. Register with the relevant UK agency/body so as to get a certified/license to practice your occupation within the UK. 2. Start applying for jobs on UK job sites (this depends on your Occupation skill) 3. If you are shortlisted for interview and given the job offer, then your employer applies for COS which you will require in order to apply for UK visa from your home country (I guess Nigeria) Gracias |

Hello crushsugar, I have been a silent follower of your thread and it's been wonderful. However, I have a few enquiries: 1. How did you solve the accommodation issue when you landed in the UK? Was it your agency who helped out? Did you initially book a hotel to lodge before getting accommodation? 2. I know there are furnished and unfurnished apartments for rent. What are your thoughts as regards the pros and cons of renting either. Thanks 4 Likes 1 Share |

Good day my great people. Thanks for all your responses, opinions and feedbacks so far. Please, based on your experience, what are the pros and cons of renting either a furnished or an unfurnished apartment? Secondly, what is the minimum EPC rating to look out for when renting an apartment? Thanks in advance |
