To activate the PM system you have to post a number of threads on the forum. These have to be informative and relative to the subject. You can answer other posts with advice or information. One word posts are not accepted as being informative.   :huh: 
The more you post the bigger your PM system becomes.

nicolas83278

ok, but as I'm trying to find a maximum contacts in Bristol, this system is a bit anoying for me :/

Leena888

Hi All :)

Am Leena from Egypt, and am planning to move to London by the end of this year, i have 3 years of experience in the Human resources field . how can i find a job ?

Thanks :)

Zayn

It's not easy to get a job in England due to the high unemployment. In order to get a work permit, the employer must show there isn't someone capable to fulfill that role. With the current high unemployment, most likely there will be.

MoniJay

Hi Leena,

The best way to find a job in London is to get in touch with recruitment agencies. There are few in London that are reliable and serious about what they do.
Make a contact with the agent who recruits in your field, drop an introduction email, connect on LinkedIn and they will do the rest.
What position are you looking for?

Hiya I am Spartacus

just a quick one........not sure that broadcasting your email address is a good move. There are so many scammers that sneak passed the system (try to anyway) you may get some unwanted mail.......it's just a thought.
hope your holiday was fantastic,

I'm currently completing my final M.A year internship in France as an assistant project manager and cherish the desire to get on the train of life starting by the wagon of an English speaking country.

I chose Brighton to start my journey and will be there by October 1st although I have not found a housing yet.
I'm open/international-minded and come here to meet people and have some good tips on getting an accomodation.

In the British medical system, it's essential to understand and be understood clearly.
One simple error in language could easily mean the death of the dude on your table.
A good course will help your skills a lot, but you have to engage in regular use of your English.
An hour a week will get you nowhere, but an hour a week with lots of watching English movies and hanging around with people who speak English will greatly improve your chances of a reasonable score.
Good luck.

khaled hassan

thank you for your advices,hopefully i will pass it soon

Hi,

Been back in England 1 year after 15 years in the US -  I have dual nationality and have lived in both countries.

Feeling very homesick for America and Americans.  Would love to reach out and find some kindred spirits.

I am in Bristol with my 3 little girls aged 8,9 and 10.  Separated from hubbie in America - came here because we have family support - but miss our old life so much.

Hoping to hear from others in similar/same boat

Acreasy613

Cheers all,
I haven't relocated as of yet...quite a possibility though.  So, have a million questions as expected.  Looking at Surrey or Norwich?  Which one is closer to London?  Which one is more child friendly?  Which one has more affordable homes?    That's a good start I suspect!  :)
