My baby Gal just landed in Manchester now, don't even know how life would be for her in the next five years. I'm scared for her.

Is it easy for a lady living in the UK chesterfield?

Yea it’s actually possible, you don’t need to have a job to get a visa like the Global Talent Visa. Even though I’m not sure what type of Visa her friend is on but if she’s on a skilled worker Visa without a job, then she’d definitely get a job so I’m not sure why her friend is worried about her.
Well, not having all the information can make you worried

They do and it’s relatively easy to learn. A Udemy course can give someone a foundational understanding and they can also download a free data visualisation tool like Tableau public to practice with.
You're mixing up data analyst with business analyst

No I’m not, I’m a Project Manager and an aspiring Product Manager. However, if the opportunity arises to become a BA, I’d switch if it’s a solid salary. Anywhere belle face cheesy

Ur fiancee has immigrated to UK, and u think she would come over after 5yrs to pick u up? Is only Nigerian men that has been known to do that, women are unfeeling and cruel, they would never help a man unconditionally unless u re her brother, did she tell u she doesn't av siblings or even relatives

I'm telling him now so that he keeps an open mind that as soon as she has landed there, inorder to settle down properly and get citizenship she needs to get married to a Nigerian man with British citizenship or even a white man, after all, she wasn't invited by any company there that would sponsor her and even go to d extent of getting her permanent resident permit, is not as if she's a nurse or skilled worker

Man, this is all shades of untrue - and because you have heard of Nigerian women doing this does not mean it applies to all of them

Thing is, you tend to always hear about the rubbish ones who got to the UK and abandoned those back home

Ever wondered why you never hear of the tons of marriages that have weathered the storm for 25+ years but only the bad divorces?

In Mass Communication, they say bad news is good news

Tableau is a tool everyone use. Heck, I use Jira, Azure DevOps and sometimes PowerBI it doesnt mean I am a professional user. What I meant in essence is the fundamental function of a BA is to interface between the business and the IT. Most importantly, gathering requirements and engaging stakeholders. They could use Tableau as part of that function. However, Data Analyst use these tools day in day out. it is their bread and butter.

av u ever wondered y is it that the good news u claim do not make it to front page or headlines, the reason is cos is such a rare occurrence for a naija girl to bring her bf over to the UK, is so rare that u re likely to find gold in ikorodu than for it to happen

My dear, you’ve just agreed with me. So I don’t see the argument here. Tableau is a visualisation tool that BA’s use. Perhaps by adding data in front of visualisation, I confused you, however it’s still data that’s imputed in Tableau. Yes Data Analysts use it but it’s also used by BA’s. Just like Excel is used by both BA’s, DA’s and everyone else. Learning how to use these basic tools can be useful if you are trying to become a BA. Fin

My own is where are you people making £300 or £700 daily.
I no just wan talk...

700 a day by 24 working days is £16,800 a month. Yet the average UK salary is £30,500 per annum.

You seem to be getting it wrong + my analogy LOL

If you check NL frontpage, you will see bad news about Nigeria 95% of the time. Does it mean that there is never good news in the entire country?

My mom's friend brought her husband
My friend's wife brought him
My friend in Canada paid for her boyfriend and initiated application for him to come, he kept scamming her and squandering the money

Tons of examples but I guess you only want to see the bad eggs maybe owing to personal experience

What I'm after is her well being not her coming to pick me, I'd already told her if she sees a man that she's comfortable with let her marry but keep me updated. But she said she can never leave me, so I'm fine both ways.

You've spoken well!
We live in a world where you are to only help a follow gender if you do same to an opposite gender relationship must be attached.

The popular saying ...we rise by lifting others shouldn't be one sided. I don't pray or support her just because she's coming for me it's because we've been good to each other since started dating.

Those roles are typically contract jobs.
Not everyone gets paid such and could be 3months or less. ( Outside IR35 or whatever they call it)

Good for him.
He must be very good at what he's doing.
I get offers like this an I know they're not permanent roles.
Although, I've only saw £300-500 per day

They are not permanent roles, who needs a permanent role you can be surplus to requirement anytime. I have been in my role for about 3 years now, I came in on a 3 month contract.

The thing is, these organisations prefer to hire contractors cos they dont call in sick, go on holidays and can hit the ground running. Moreso, they are not entitled to any benefit and they can be rolled out at a few weeks notice. Cunny man find am, cunny man thief am solution. cheesy
