Hey all,

I'm a recent graduate of MSc in AI and am looking for work. How does one navigate job hunting with a Graduate Visa(2-year permit)? Seems like a few applications have been rejected due to 2 years being too less.

Any inputs appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Some corporates don’t worry about the visas for some specific roles (AI is good), apply for graduate schemes. Mid size and startups do ask and you will be rejected a lot, be prepared for that, don’t be upset. It is hard to pass the ATS when hundred of people is applying. So try another methods like networking, cold emailing, Linkedin connections, ask people give you the chance, you can work for 2 years, after that negotiate your sponsorship. But whatever you do, get a job related your area, having a UK employer on your resume will be important for your future sponsorship job search. Even if you get a job, don’t stop applying for sponsorhip roles/companies. Don’t trust the employer if they promise verbally. Hope it helps!

So, you’ve reached the stage of your career where you care more about cashing a fat paycheck than making “creative ads”. You’d rather have the resources and free time to fulfill your creative itch outside of work than try to sell the next big idea to an 28 year old marketing manager with an annual budget of 150k. How do you make the absolute most money as a copywriter while still working a 9-5? Asking for... a... friend?

Hi there!
I completed the last round of an interview (presentation) last week. Originally they said they would be calling my references & then make an offer accordingly.
Today they updated that they'd like me to travel to their HQ (based in Nordics & I'm in London) for the final round where I'd meet the CEO, the hiring manager and a couple of people in the team.
I don't think I'm the only one in the process - even though initially the last round was the presentation.
What are your thoughts?
