Good evening! Does anyone have advice for how to search for jobs/companies in the industry which sponsor visas?

Any general advice or rules of thumb would be greatly appreciated.

If you’re asking about which companies have the legal means to technically sponsor someone then gov.uk have a list of companies that can sponsor. You can Google that.

If you’re asking how YOU can find a company that will sponsor you then there’s no easy answer to that. If you have any connections then that would be a good place to start to hopefully get a leg in. Otherwise, start hitting companies up to try and land interviews. If you get an interview then just do your best to be a good candidate that they think is worth sponsoring. It’s a lot of luck but it’s better to at least try

As someone who’s been trying to get sponsored in the UK for the past 18 months, I can confirm that it is extremely difficult and surprisingly rare. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try.

I just got a really great offer, only downside is the eligibility for maternity leave is after 12 months of employment. We got a faint positive today but have had so many chemical pregnancies over the past year that I am not confident it will stick this time BUT I am on aspirin and progesterone for this try … so it could.. I want to see if I could negotiate being eligible earlier but I also don’t want them to think I’m pregnant when I’m not actually… How would you approach the conversation?

Our senior creative leadership keep talking about winning Cannes Lions and D&AD pencils but none of them have actually won any since 2007 (that’s 14 years 😭 ) and between all three of them they’ve never won more than a couple of silvers, a couple of bronzes and a couple of in-books (that’s with a combined experience of over 60 years 😭). They have no clue 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭. Tell me something about your agency so that I can feel better about the hell-hole I find myself in🙏
