I am going to UK for the first time, with no relatives or friends around. As i dont hav a job in UK at present and will only be able to apply for the same once i land there, i invite any willing candidate who is leaving within next 3 weeks so that we can share accomodation to average out the initial expenses.
Also if some1 has already got the accomodation and is ready to put it on a sharing basis, kindly contact me on the following :

Some more advice from me .
1) As soon as you come in your first time your aim for some days is getting Job .
what you need most is broadband and phone .
2)
here it is not like INDIA , you wont find internet parlours like india in every street , even if 1 is found , it is costly like 2 pounds / hour etc and the biggest problem is phone .
You may need to speak to agents and so if you buy pre-paid card you can speak for only 5 minutes . They are MONEY eating machines . So as soon as you come in you may not get a post paid phone . Best is a place which has LAND line .
So call agent, look for a room shared room with broadband preferably wireless + phone . Usually it will be in range from 300 to 400 / month depending on area .
I was almost crying because of the phone . I just had a pre-paid phone and ended up not having broadband . Once i call agent for 5 minutes that annoying message . Please recharge please recharge ..My god ...
what i did is luckily got a old classmate and ran to his house who had broadband and local lines . stayed there for a month .
for 1 month was on internet and phone continuosly and by the end of the month got my first contract
.
After that all will be cool .....just fly as you wish ...
