Learning to pronounce Southwark is a start. And then everyone visiting Southwark is keen to be lectured on the correct pronunciation. Be seen at Tate modern will earn you respect.

Why Southwark specifically? I’m also an expat. Unless you absolutely need to be central for work, I’d recommend looking further out, keeping rail connections for your work in mind. SW London attracts lots of us, but for good reason I think.

I’m also a US expat. Southwark is really central, convenient to get to the city and canary wharf. I’m in SW London which I prefer as it’s a bit more peaceful and more green space

Move to Fulham instead

Best headphones for working in the office?

Ideally:
- don’t pick up the conversation next to you
- have potential to noise block
- comfortable
- connect easily to HP (don’t have to be wireless but that’s a plus)

Anyone go from SaaS / licensing sales to services (strategy & implementation) sales?

I'm thinking of moving from large cap tech to large cap consultancy firm to help build the resume and round out my experience. I enjoy and do well in licensing, but I'm fairly young in my career (<6 years) and received a great offer to make the move.

Big fan of the org and team I'll be joining as well.

Thanks!!

According to an article in LinkedIn new job postings are down for the first time in 9 months but still there over 10 million open jobs with only 5.9 million unemployed workers. Why is it that here I am unemployed over 4 months and still not one offer. Anyone got some positive vibes to send my way it would be appreciated! I’ve been in sales for over 20 years, b2c, b2b and account management as well as sales management. I’ve got great skills and enthusiasm to give to a great employer!

Hi everyone,

I am moving to London on Monday from another country.

I was just informed the earlier accommodation I made got messed up, I can't even begin to explain.

Can anyone please recommend a relatively cheap accommodation to me in London?.

Thank you so much.
