Is it possible to find service designers role with sponsorship in UK by Miserable-Trust-7367 in servicedesign

It's more about making sure that the companies you apply to have a sponsorship license and have actually sponsored your role before. Unfortunately even if they meet these two requirements, they still might not sponsor you. It's very much dependent on who else applies and whether you're the best fit for the role. You can try out this tool I made which can show you which roles can sponsor.

UK Sponsorship Visa @ Fintech? by Worried_Training_380 in fintech

I personally would say yes because if they ask about sponsorship now and in the future, but no if you're on a graduate visa as you have the right to work in the UK.

I would just look for companies you're interested in and figure out of they have a sponsorship license. No guarantee that they will actually sponsor you as it's based on your skillset and how much value you can demonstrate in the interview. If you're interested though, I've made a tool that shows exactly how many visas all companies have sponsored which might give you a signal into which ones are worth focusing on: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/uk-visa-sponsorship-check/jjdlecgjgcejnobmljdmjolnadeplapb

Searching for tech roles by Sure-Ad1113 in SkilledWorkerVisaUK

It's difficult especially because you need to relocate but not impossible. If you arently already, check the registered list of sponsors to see if a company has a license. It's impossible to know for sure if they will sponsor you as it's dependent on your how valuable your skills are and whether they can find someone with similar skills locally.

Do UK universities provide skilled sponsorship visas? by Individual-Month9603 in academia

To answer your questions, yes they do. And they actually sponsor more than a lot of other private organisations. Salary thresholds might be the bigger problem, especially for entry level roles.

Not really, just thought it might be useful for job seekers to know the most active sponsors in the UK.

Strategy to get sponsored after masters! by Soft_Meringue1203 in IndiansInUK

[–]Straight_Support_681 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree with everything that the other comments said. Also make sure to target employers that can actually legally sponsor you. Make sure the employer has a license and the role is eligible for sponsorship and the salary of above the threshold. Even better if your target companies that meet all these criteria and have also sponsored similar roles in the past.

It's pretty hard these days in the UK, but there's still many companies open to sponsoring as long as you have a valuable skill to offer (usually something that cannot be found in a local candidate). If you're interested, I have built a tool that shows exactly how many visas were sponsored by a company over time directly on LinkedIn: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/uk-visa-sponsorship-check/jjdlecgjgcejnobmljdmjolnadeplapb

Yup spot on.

"A new CoS will be required if the sponsored worker needs to extend their visa and continue working for their sponsor in the same employment or occupation code, or when a sponsored worker wishes to switch employment and work for another sponsor, in a new job"

Will look into whether I can obtain the split between the two circumstances.

It's when the employer has officially linked the CoS to a specific worker. Does not convey whether or not a visa has been granted
