Hi everyone, I’m moving from Toronto to London next year and feeling anxious thinking about UK’s job market, is it better or worse than Toronto? I will be joining my spouse and that’s the reason I’m moving. Please provide some insight towards how easy it is to obtain a consulting position. I’m also early in my career, my background is in SCM/Data Analytics. Thank you

Opposite experience from D2 on salary. Definitely was better off in Toronto. Particularly with the pound going the way it has over the last few months (but have been here for years).

I wouldn’t worry - the market is hot and the good thing in Consulting is that attrition rates are extremely high so there is a constant need for hiring despite of the macro environment situation!

Also moving from Toronto and experiencing the same anxieties. Don’t stress over what you can’t control, you only need to land 1 job. If you have a flexible move date, start early and be ready to adjust your plans accordingly. Try to get a referral and good luck!

I’m doing the opposite move hopefully early next year and I’m so anxious about toronto. If it puts your mind at ease, we’re still seeing some crazy offers here in the UK and still getting reached out to by recruiters especially for boutiques. As long as you don’t need sponsorship, set your open to work on LinkedIn up correctly and you should start to get dm’s flowing through
