Thank you all for your guidance.I entered UK on 29th of august and started applying for jobs from 1st of september and received permanent employment with UK Based company in Cambridge on 9th.My observation is that it is highly unlikely that one receives interview call these days with out Europe or UK experience.I had one yr swiss exp. which fetched me this call.I feel the salary is vey less(25k per annum + Bonus + Pensions + Health Insurance) but looking at the current maket I think it is ok.Your opinions are welcome on this.
Some times things are crazy..when requirement is Urgent....Isn't it? I have no UK bank account, no NI number and no NHS registration as these are basic things comanies here look at even for a contract job.HR asked me for these details and I said I don't have any of these now.She said it is fine and issued me the offer.She told me to make sure that atleast I have NI number before joining.
Regards,
Chandra

congrats chandra. you actually cant say 25k is very less. it totally depends on what kind of job it is. if its a relaxing easy job, then 25k should be fine. but if its a tierdsome job that includes physical labor or something then itmay be less. so it really depends.. you want to share about your job description?chandu_246 wrote:Hi all,

Council tax bill is usually the quickest one to get.Vedapon wrote:To open a new bank account, you will need to show proof of valid residence in the UK eg utility bills - water/electicity/gas bills or a council tax document.
UK banks do not accept letters from employers to facilitate opening a savings/current account.
Unless you came in on a work permit, in which case the hiring employer will take care of this for you.
I came in end April, took me 7 weeks to show proof of valid residency before the bank accepted these documents.

Some banks also accept the letter from Job Centre which confirms your National Insurance number. A friend of mine recently opened an account with Barclays, and since he was living with me while searching for a job, this was the only document he had, it was accepted.Vedapon wrote:To open a new bank account, you will need to show proof of valid residence in the UK eg utility bills - water/electicity/gas bills or a council tax document.
