My partner has just transitioned into a new career and I have been taking care of the expenses of the house. We both have been wanting to move abroad. I tried consultants like yaxis but I can’t get myself to trust them.
I want to get a job in the UK and my partner will pursue a masters. How do I go about the same? At this point I am clueless as to how I could go about it.
P. S. We are not married.
Tricky as you two are not married.
The following could be the lines of action for you.
Your partner can enrol in his desired course - Explore the kind of working Visa available for spouses for students. Get Married. Get that Visa and land in the UK. Explore as a local candidate.
Enrol yourself as a student for a course in your desired line of work. Complete the course. Explore as a local candidate.
Get the Job Search Visa* (not sure if it exists and what are the requirements). Explore as a local candidate.
LinkedIn - Network with people in your line of work in the desired companies in UK to see if there are other ways to land those roles.
LinkedIn - Network with spouses who were working earlier in India and are now currently based in UK and are not working. Get their insights.
Not sure how Brexit has impacted the movement of talent in and out of UK. In the current situation with layoffs and cost cuts, it would be extremely difficult to land a job in a highly competitive market like UK from India unless you have something highly specific to offer.
Wish you luck!!
Thank you so much. I have been trying to do a few of these things. Makes so much sense.
It's quite alright. I'm guessing you're from consulting since you're talking about your partner.
Partners often tend to leave the firm once they clock in a few years and the revenue share starts coming in. Moving across geographies is also not unheard of. In case you like working with them, have a conversation and let them know! In most cases they will be more than happy to hire a previous colleague.
P.S. which industry does your partner specialise in? Seems like education and consumer from the post
/S
Its not consulting partner, it is people partner 😃
Y axis is fake, they just keep sending emails and you have to do everything by yourself. They are minting money by gullible people who have high aspirations to go aboard. There is no service form them expect email follow ups
Maybe too young for an opinion but: Just get married asaik married couples have it easy with the visa stuff and “that’s my wife/husband “ sounds so wholesome come on
