It's bad out there mate, u just gotta hang in there and the worst thing u want is a huge gap on ur cv. I suggest finding odd bits urself, there's not much of that either but get on LinkedIn, etc and at least have something blaggable to put on ur cv to cover the gap.sasawat wrote:guys, need your help here. I've been living under tier 1 visa for almost 6 months already. I've been applying so many jobs, specifically engineering field, yet no replies, hopelessly. My qualification is considerable, got master degree in economics, 3 years experience in engineering field in major consumer product company. Can anyone, especially successful folks, advise any tips to succeed in getting a good job? thank you so much guys.

There are millions unemployed, there are jobs out there but they are going to people already here, people with UK experience, people without time-limited visas. But there are few and far between.
My friendly agent tells me for each role advertised on average he gets 200 applications. Five of those will be really good, local, experienced people so what would you do?
People applying online are applying for jobs regardless of whether or not they've got the qualifications or experience asked for in the advertisement. Go and have a look on monster, some jobs had over 600 applications.roopscisco wrote:HeyWanderer wrote:Ok.sajidzaidi wrote:not a matter of listen / read. it is a matter of belief

Just wondering Does this agent talk to 200 Applicants to make his /her decesion as " Five of those will be really good " ? How ? Base on what criteria ?
i m pretty sure that is not the case. But i have been watching the job openings via internet are FAKE. Very few you can count as real ones. .
Thanks.

I'm working in a non-IT field ..(luckily successful) and only suggestion i can think of is.
Be flexible with your job role. Be prepared to step down a level or 2. apply for specifically working level jobs a level down with your CV modified to match the job role (ie. stress on working level experience rather than admin responsiblites)
keep in mind after u gain some uk experience things will be totally different...
