HOW TO MIGRATE TO U.K AND WORK AS AN EXPERT

Are you thinking of relocating to the U.K anytime soon? Or you are preparing to move already?For over a period of time I have discovered that a major reason why people (especially those from developing countries) relocate to the UK and other more civilized countries is in search of green pleasures, better standard of living  and an overall better life.

Now listen, as good as that decision might look, if you don’t take your time to sit, think it through well, count the cost, ensure you are wholistically ready for it, do a cross examination to check if your present self, skills and qualifications are capable enough to fit into what the labour market demands over there, if you don’t do any of these, I can assure you that your decision to migrate will most likely end in premium tears. Yes! you heard me right.

Your quest to work professionally as an expert in the U.K shouldn’t start after you have landed in the U.K already, it should start before you leave your home country. Infact, that should be the first thing before you start packing your loads. In this article I will be dishing out 5 steps you should take in order to get your dream job and work as an expert in the U.K…

STEP 1: GET FAMILIAR WITH THE DEMANDS OF THE U.K LABOUR MARKET

While still in your home country, it is very necessary for you to research on what the labour Market is like over there. What are the hard skills high in demand? What are the appreciated soft skills? What is happening in your friend of career, profession and industry in the U.K? These are necessary information you should know in order to help you prepare for what you are getting into.

STEP 2: START PREPARING YOURSELF WHILE STILL IN YOUR HOME COUNTRY

Sequel to the information you gathered in step 1, start equipping yourself with the necessary skills and things that will help you once you land in the U.K labour market.

STEP 3: START YOUR JOB HUNT ONLINE
