Are Certificates gotten from udemy in Nigeria useful in the UK?.

I want to know because I'm already doing one and intend to do more if it's useful there.

You do the maths yourself sir:

If you know in your heart that you won’t fight with your wife when she comes here and because she doesn’t want to do all she used to do in Nigeria, then you can come under her. It’s cost efficient and very flexible.
You just sit in your house and be applying for jobs while learning one or two courses in Udemy- no pressure.

If you know you will vex and fight with your wife and consider divorce, better close your eyes and spend the money and be on your own o (luckily it’s on the shortage list) so we won’t hear stories that touch the heart. [/quote]

Apologies for jumping on your conversation. If this is meant to be a cover letter, please do not waste your time sending it because it does a very bad job selling your skills. Align it to the job you are applying for and highlight your skills as it matches the job requirements.

Udemy is for personal development and the certificate is symbolic. No employer will ask to see your Udemy certificate, most don't even ask for your degree certificates. Just use to learn or sharpen your skills and state on your CV what you can do.

Facebook creates 1,000 new UK jobs

Facebook will create 1,000 new roles in London over the course of this year, including adding to its team tackling harmful online content.

More than half of the new jobs will be technology-focused, with roles in software engineering, product design and data science, the company said.

It will take Facebook's UK workforce to more than 4,000.

Thank you for this straight forward advice.
I won't be African in marriage on the UK soil I have never been even here in Nigeria even as a banker back then.

So make I just relax and follow her.

Plus, a friend of mine who is in the UK said it's so hard over there especially.

If I have survived Nigeria especially the last four years I can comfortably survive in Hell fire.

Hello house
I intend going to Scotland for my master which is 2years with placement. With the new system of post study work, can I get a job as a business and financial Manager after my Masters, also can I easily switch to Tier 2 Visa if I decide to stay there after the 2years post study work.
Thanks

grin Should we tell her?

This thread has people with even 7 years experience and phd and they never reach manager.

Anyway, your God for strong pass our own. Please go and come back with good news of your success grin

STENON:
If you are a family man or woman and your spouse has teaching qualifications, experiences or TRCN... apply for admission for yourself and look for money to pay half tuition and move over.
Let your spouse be your dependant to be eligible for full time job position and when they come over here... they get the necessary teaching licence and start working as a teacher which makes it easier to pay your full tuition fees plus a saving grace for your spouse to get tier 2 visa sponsorship so you can apply as the dependant after your studies .

Forget all those other top jobs with highest pay, it's difficult to get such here. Nobody cares about your overseas qualification if you don't do another Professional examination, training or no UK experience to get their licence.

So many Engineering graduates, biochemist, bank managers from Nigeria working as a sales boy/girl, cleaner, carer or support worker in UK.



But with Teaching, you are good to live a comfy life in UK wink


But Somebody coming for masters said they want to be business and financial manager grin ambition is sweet sha grin

Here no one cares about your certificates. I’ve had 3 jobs and nobody asked me for even my BSc. Their own is when they ask you to cut the patient (if na surgeon you claim to be), you won’t say “eh?” Or “I don’t understand”.

Trust me, ma, we wouldn't like it.

I recently saw an interview with a lady who worked in this sort of role - guiding posts. Based on what she said, it's psychologically draining and the trauma is another thing. She had to undergo therapy.

Some of the content which they review are really disturbing.

If it's the actual cyber security work, yes we dey available grin


I don't see many people here trying to shoot for the investment banks though
