you do not need a uk qualification or relevant experience to be sponsored.
since u are student dependent, u can change visa within uk.
you will need restricted COS which is issued by employer.
RLMT need to be done correctly
u will need a statement of 900 for yourself, and 1500 if applying with partner.
you will need English language test certificate
employer need to assign u a job which is of NVQ level 6 at least, with correct soc code and responsibilities.

Thank you for your reply...will you please guide me further above Restricted Cos...and for English tests, which exams are accepted..? Some of my friends told me that some exams are banned by home office...
