Skilled in woodwork/carpentry

Your skill in carpentry is eligible for the UK skilled worker visa, your focus is to look for UK companies with sponsorship license, recruiting carpenters/joiners from outside the UK.

This thread is for students, so we don't get to derail it.

Pochettino:
Most especially the women

I watched a video of some yoruba women fighting in the UK. You hardly see the men fighting there.

Uncle Gender Dysphoria, don follow talk.😂😂

N10m is less than $6,000...hmm🤔

Really painful.

latiephwald:
I’m planning to relocate to the UK for work and would appreciate any guidance on the criteria I need to meet. Could you also provide insight into the typical expenses and funds needed for a smooth transition?

To support this move, I’m considering selling my car, valued at around 6-7 million, as well as land worth 2 million. In your opinion, would this be sufficient to achieve my relocation goals?

Thank you for your assistance, and I look forward to any advice you can offer.

Are your skills in high demand in the UK?

Midex88:
Thanks for the advise, planning to move to the Uk, pls can you elaborate slightly on what you meant by envious users.

What in all the junk he wrote there is good advice?

Genuine care COS in the private sector that is seriously very scare or the ones from NHS , that has thousands of others already in the UK, are also chasing?🙄

UK is not Nigeria, where you will be forming wetin person bo know , when it comes to jobs or getting mortgage, no be by forming macho.

Relocate to the UK with an open mind, no matter how toxic some people you will meet will be, you would also get to meet people who would look out for you, people who would get drawn to you for the positive energy you exude.

It's not possible for the school to reject flogging and punishment..
How is that possible?
Teaching cannot be effective if there is no punishment

Rather teaching cannot be effective, if there is no discipline. There is vast difference between discipline and punishment.

Any school that knows its onions would not still be applying beatings/flogging in this big 2024. There are more effective ways in instilling discipline in children and young persons.

You get employed by a school like Corona in Lagos and you would insist on beating/flogging, kneeling down pupils to instill discipline?🙄🙄

A long ride.

gtassure:
You are a liar! Where are your proves!

My proof that I work in.Kosofe LG?

MT:
So why were you arguing otherwise at the bolded in your previous post?

That one needed connection in government to get a public service job abroad as it is in Nigeria, I got one in London and had no connection with anyone in government, so don't blanket it.

omolola100:
By giving the students punishment....
Kneel down, raise up your hands and close your eyes

And if the school further states those are not allowed as punishment, how would your effectively manage those challenging behaviours?

Racoon:
Nigeria cum Nigerians have been perennially afflicted with the pathetic Stockholm syndrome - an unexplainable avid affinity for your afflictors or oppressors.

It is called learned helplessness.

MT:
With time, you will exposed to all the dirts in the system.

It looks seemingly perfect to you now. Spend some time or move up the ladder to management level, you will see they are
quite corrupt in the government establishment in the western worlds.

Corruption is everywhere in the world and by the way, they are many born and raised Nigerians at the very top management level in the borough, I see their details on our intranet and that is reassuring that if they can get there, I also can.

femi4:
They don't certificate. They rate skills and experience. Your 12-16 months won't give you that edge. Do you now the number of graduates UK school produce every year? The job market is saturated that you need to provide something special to be chosen. It's not Nigeria that your Msc cert automatically get you a job even when you can't defend it

Like I said, in my field working within the children and adolescents mental health services under the children and family seevice unit., my degrees opened the door and my work experience was expressed at the table and knowing my Professional Doctorate is in view, my employer knew I will be a long term assest to them.

They are fields that are all-comer's affair, that do not require even a degree to get into, just be good enough with field experience but IT IS NOT all fields because some are protected fields.

For example, many counties and boroughs in the UK are struggling to recruit educational psychologists to assess many of their children and young people with special educational needs, with tens of thousands on their waiting list. I guess when applying for such roles, you can't tell them you have extensive experience though you have no degree to back it up.😂

afroxyz:
Ah that explaons it. Your role is in a closely regulated space because you're most likely dealing with minors so there are perequisties. But outside of those spaces, like in tech, no one gives a rat ass about your degree

Yes, a regulated space as I work within children and adolescents mental health services. I know for tech, construction etc wetin u study for school no concern anybody just show workings .😂😂

omolola100:
Don't say that again
Some students are very troublesome...
Its not that you won't beat student but everything much have a limit.
At worst 3 stroke is okay.

Okay, if you as a teacher get employed in a school with a strict "NO BEATING/FLOGGING" policy, how would you instill discipline in the students?

omolola100:
Teachers has to be careful...
I experience alot when I was still a teacher.
Na God save me
I like beating students if you don't do assignment

Beating students is a proof of a weak teacher, who hides behind a cane.

They delayed taking him to hospital for medical attention because they thought he was pretending? The teacher and the Principal need to be prosecuted and imprisoned.

afroxyz:
Psychology landed you a job because you are working in a unit that requires that skill set. Your experience trumps any certificate.

Here it is show all working. Other psychologists interviewed for that role. I'm very sure during your interview you were told to present something you've done before.

This mentality of doing a good course as a prerequisite for getting a job only works in Naija. In UK, it is 'Show All Working'

Experience and academic qualifications go hand in hand. In my field, you are presenting both.

Even on NHS recruitment portal, roles in my field always have NHS state categorically that you MUST have membership with the British Psychological Society and one is expected to input their BPS number, in the course of the application and they would go verify.

To get that number, you MUST have studied Psychology at degree level (either undergraduate or postgraduate) and met BPS qualifying threshold.

You can't have all the "experiences" without that degree and get those related roles.

For my field, that degree opens the door then your experience is that you show off at the table.

femi4:
Even if you study course that make sense, it's still not enough. Uk firms don't rate certificate but how experience you are on a given task. Their course work of 12-18 months won't give you that

Studying courses that "make sense" puts you on the pathway.

Let me give an example, If you come to the UK to do your Masters in Business Administration and your friend also comes to do his Masters in Psychology conversion (conversion because he didn't study psychology as a degree program for his undergraduate degree).

You both got part time support worker jobs as students till you both graduate, you an MBA degree while he, a Msc Psychology degree with the added accreditation as Graduate Member, British Psychological Society (GMBPsS) after his name.

Your friend will have higher opportunities of getting skilled worker visa related jobs than you with your MBA as recruiters see that your support worker job as a survival job for you while your friend would be seen as getting relevant work experience to apply what he was studying in school....Psychology is what I studied at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, it has given me job opportunities and finally landed me a well paying job in the public sector with a London borough in their children and family services.

lastkingsman:
Na free COS suppose be. Most People that initially bought actually recoup their investments, I won't even advise my enemy to pay for COS right now

Paid for COS, is now a waving red flag.

Be truly skilled and have rich working experience in an in-demand field, you will comfortably be offered COS by firms with the sponsorship license.

Shadomaan7:
They should stop being childish. Bianca's appointment is a reward for her loyalty not based on party affiliation.

Which loyalty?...rather it was her younger brother that was hawking APC like gala in the last election but wasn't appointed into any position while she never identified with APC

APC needs her personality for the optics, reason they gave her a portfolio in the Foreign Ministry for high visibility.

Eyah.

lastkingsman:
People really made money from COS runs. It's well

Many really cashed out, the 2 jobs that have granted me the COS, I didn't pay a dime for it.

MT:
The bolded is not true.

If you are adequately skilled, put your profile on Linkedln, it is the employers that will be chasing you up and down.

Change your mindset, you don't need to bribe your ways through high paying professional jobs in Nigeria. It is MOSTLY on merits and performances.

When it comes to Govt jobs, they use connection to get jobs in Government work abroad too, like Nigeria.

You lie!

I am presently a public service worker (govt worker) with a London borough. They advertised a job vacancy on their website, LinkedIn and Indeed.

We were 217 that applied for the job, 34 was shortlisted for the interview which we had at their council headquarters near London bridge.

I was the only one who scaled through and got hired despite still being on the skilled worker visa route and so many other applicants were British citizens. They went through the stress of thoroughly contacting all my references in the Countries I have schooled and worked in and I finally got to switch sponsor.

Now , enjoying the job with good pay package, beautiful working environment few minutes walk to the iconic London bridge and Tower bridge.

My "connection" was my academic qualifications, work history, evident professional skills and God's grace.

pocohantas:
Congrats on the completion of your studies.


I read every single word in your post and I am happy for you. Indeed two good heads are better than one.

You guys that japa are brave.
I fear japa pass lion and tiger put together.

U dey fear japa?😂😂😂

Truly, it sucks so much from one but with resilience, one can eventually achieve stability.
The mistake most Nigerians who came to the UK through the study route, is coming over to study "useless" courses though the real intention was migration but why pay as much £18,000 for courses that would not realistically position you for a well paying job with skilled worker visa attached?

After graduation, some still paid another £12,000 for care visa sponsorship and still not getting regularly shifts., just hanging on a thread with their employers' sponsorship licenses awaiting the sledge hammer from the UK Home Office.

JobAndVacancies:
so you're a woman?
I been dey think say na male dey behind this account oo

What has gender identity got to do with calling out his commodifcation, which also captures his mother or is his mother, no longer a woman?

Pochettino:
It is sad that we women don't want to provide. We just want to sit and collect yet we turn around and insult those men that struggle daily to meet our needs.

God bless Bovi.

We women should do better.

Your struggle with your identity crisis, continues. Boldly chest your masculinity.

Pochettino:
He is right
We women need to be carefully scrutinized before marriage otherwise a man will not live long

Go sort out your identity crisis.,

Mryacks:
I saw that too...bot only is going to pay chicken change, he prefers a lady cook that might offer other services me think

Na the "other services" be the main target.😂😂

stop constituting nuisance young man. It's an open discussion and she made her point, why the abuse? Anyways, that's how democrats behave, always shouting and calling others names. Trump supporters were called bunch of deplorables in the past and they happily voted and made him president.

You talk like those CNN witches

After you calm down, take your antidepressant as it would help your mood swings.
