Co ask

Schoolhike:
Please I need advice
Company A : permanent.
Company B: contract

B already have a start date of 2nd week of August.

A is still doing check, tho, references completed.

Which is better,
Communicate with A if they can fast track the screening process and tell them a little about B.

Or start with B with the mind of leaving soon.

Note: A is my preferred choice

I sha passed my driving test today at 3rd attempt even though I had a perfect score in my theory, it's a different ball game driving with a stranger with eyes on you(failed the last one 30 seconds into the test which was really unfair, guess the examiner was having a bad day).

Wish all going through this phase well deserved favour!

Good morning everyone,

A friend is on a tier 4 visa and it expires later this year. The wife just got a Health and care worker job where the company would be providing COS. They want to know if they will need to have the statement balance of 1,247 requested by the UK government as they have lived in the UK more than 1 year.

For the dependant will there be need for her to write the ielts or ecctis before switching to the Health and Care Visa?

Thanks.

Regarding the bolded, in which field will you easily get this pay in Australia? If it is IT, then you will need years of experience. I was recently comparing IT salaries in UK vs Australia and I realised IT kind of pay more in the UK. Not so sure of other profession though.

Australia also come with a lot of issues such as high cost of living, expensive houses among others. All countries have their pros and cons.

giselle237:
you are unserious. You came to this country of your own accord. Nigeria did not send you here. Nigeria did not send anyone here.
What’s all this drama? The UK is skimming/scheming of the best of you?? Tuh! What is this you are speaking? Did they ask for you?
You were looking for a better life and came here. Nigeria DID NOT SEND ANY BRIGHTEST AND BEST ANYWHERE. We came for better lives. Stop this for God’s sake.

RalphJean:
So long as you want to justify British Policies, using NIGERIAN standards, you will never get it right in this debate.

For you to suggest that Legal and law abiding Nigerian Immigrants in the UK should not be treated as equals and Infact should not have ‘audacity of equality’ proves how you want to judge the British society using (your) Nigerian standards.

hustla:
Hmmm Key thing is salary. Na money man dey follow. All these argument about UK and ihs increment isn't even what's annoying me, it's the salaries

If their jobs paid high salaries, I'd just say We die here but mba

£35K / £45K salary in UK
$130K in Yankee
$150K in Australia

Imagine calling people’s view on neocolonialism nonsense just to sound politically correct. The UK gains way more from Africa’s natural resources annually than the change they give in the guise of "aid". Na our leaders I blame, if they didn’t mess up the country to the point where we all had to run to another land for "greener" pastures, we wouldn’t be having this conversation where people see opposing views as faux activism. When some of you are done jocking the people who were actually born here, remember that your passport is still green, you are still black and changes in immigration policies still affect you regardless of your visa status.

Schoolhike:
Another angle to this is that, securing a job with less than 2 months left on the visa might be a little bit off to some employer most especially those that can’t sponsor, except if you are only pursuing sponsorship jobs.



Last year December, I locked up not to only apply for jobs that can sponsor, so I started applying to jobs that can’t sponsor after getting the psw, eventually got one, after 4 months on the job, like 10 of us in the company were made redundant, eventually got another one (which would probably come with sponsorship from my research), after a month of thorough searching with lots of interviews rounds like 2 in a week,



(then I remembered an advise from the thread that not to be too loyal with a company when opportunity arise, some other opportunities did arise when on that job, but turned a blind eye)




Well all in all, would advise you apply as soon as possible cos of the increment and also be able to apply for jobs without the fear of an expiring visa which some employer might take serious because sincerely, I got to know during my job search that the competition out there is stiff, compared to when I came in in 2021.

Isn't it on this same thread we said people should try to aspire for Better jobs than care and people got angry and said all sorts?

Why you dey fast and pray for their visa that year?

Viruses:
Should we create another thread for "Lamentations in the Uk" or
"How Immigrants are helping the UK" or
"How UK is helping Immigrants "

You people should please na.

Or better still send each other dm and argue over email.

rinzylee:
I'm tired of these headless arguments .

If we are tired of UK, then leave to another country.

No one forced anybody to come here.

The day you took that visa, you signed up for any "shit".

We can cry and moan, it is their country.

If we had it better... ..... .... 1 pound won't be 995 naira today.



Find your dream and purpose and give it the best of chasing.



Abeg @justwise @Ticha @Hustla @Lexusgs430 ... my credit card landed last week with £3k limit. Fear dey catch me to use the card. Abeg should I be worried

PSW can work in any sector indeed, but why would they go for PSW in the first instance which is essentially worthless if they aim for ILR in 5yrs? How many of the blue collar jobs are offering sponsorship outside H&C?
After spending £15-20k for an MSc why should the new entrants not target the “high powered” jobs? You don’t expect someone who invested so much in their education to just go do something else unless as last resort do you?
In case you’re not aware, SWV holders cannot work outside of their primary field. Knowing Nigerians and the hustling spirit, I know their are many people with white collar jobs who wouldn’t mind doing a second or even third white or blue collar job to build themselves up, but the same government made that a very complicated process.
No one is doing the other a favour in this country, if the government wants to fill more blue collar or low skilled occupations, they can come down their high horse and recruit low skilled people to come in and do the jobs. We have an abundance of people in Naija and other parts of Africa. If they only want to attract the best and brightest don’t expect they’d come in and be in servitude to you for eternity, everyone follows the money.
