Hi, an announcement - today i recieved the Uk Skilled worker visa decision. The process took exactly 3 weeks from the BRP registeration at VFS. Also a tip when going to collect the passport, please ask VFS rep to provide you Sim card. This is free of cost for Skilled worker visa entry.

Looking for advice about what types of creative (but still corporate) non-legal roles would be easiest to pivot into. I’m an entertainment/IP/privacy lawyer but have only been practicing for 1.5 years. But I already know that the law isn’t for me and am trying to brainstorm what other career paths may be a good fit. Main complication is that I need work visa sponsorship. My first thought was marketing/advertising, but other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

do you think diversity issues are concentrated in creative wings of agencies (like pigeonholing POC in account or HR), or is it more widespread?

I’m a noob and can use some help looking for rewards flights. I have some AA miles and AmEx points. I am looking for business class flights to Europe for summer vacation (June or July 2023).
