UK Visa and job scenario for Indians

There is plenty of misconception that securing a job in UK for MBA graduates is difficult. In-fact it requires right knowledge, skills and lot of preparation and one can definitely secure a job.

There are plenty of exemptions that a student is entitled to which will help the process of securing a work visa easier for a Tier-4 visa holder. Last year more than 5000 international students successfully switched from a Tier-4 student visa to a Tier-2 work visa and secured a full-time job offer.

The students from top schools in Europe and UK (Oxford, Cambridge & Imperial etc.) are offered up to 6 months to find a suitable job once they are done with MBA under the pilot scheme. Since job employers start visiting the universities for recruitment’s, students can look for jobs many months before completing their MBA course. Job vacancies typically open up more than a year in advance and this is how most of the students plan to secure a job in UK.

Most of the vacancies for the upcoming jobs will be filled up if the students wait till they graduate so it’s better to start job hunting ahead of schedule. Candidates can also attend job fairs or visit other universities for looking for a suitable employer.
