Software guys need your advise please

[rckybhardwaj]

Dear Members,
Could I have some advise from people working in software field in UK.
My brother has 5 years experience in the IT industry, works as a Senior Software tester in Mumbai, India.
For a career growth he would like to ty and come to UK on the Working Holiday maker visa. But he is a bit reluctant to come on WHM visa, as he thinks if he may not get a job here so he couls be in a problem.
I just wanted a genuine opinion from you software professionals, what should he do,
1) Should he come on WHM visa and try for jobs in UK ?
2) Do employers take people on WHM visa ?
Your reply will be highly appreciated Please.

Thanks and Best Regards

Bhardwaj

Thanks for the reply Phalluri.
That is why I asked you guys your sincere opinion.
My brother is not interested to come to UK on Working holiday maker visa, as there is the problem of getting job.
He is actually quite happy in Mumbai, drawing a good decent salary for his age.
So I will tell him not come here and be in tension for finding jobs.
Cheers for your reply.
Thanks

Depends on your brothers skills in his area of expertise (testing )
Companies do work permit if the skillset are in demand, no doubt about it.
Your brother needs to do some basic research and self-evaluate himself to find where he stands with respect to the current job market and skills in demand.
