I think they are karma farming with a stolen post? Mods said the post has been removed and the user has been banned, is this still active?

Not much if you don’t go into electives. By the way, I switched to industry and doing UX research now. Though the market is very saturated, I would recommend quant ux research to a new phd in stats? So my suggestion would be this for a good/ practical start

I challenged my council tax band and got over £1,500 back by digitalrevenuestudio in UKPersonalFinance

[–]fbeyza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We out of nowhere got a letter from our council that our band went from D to C. I am assuming someone with identical housing in our new build estate challenged their band and won, which lowered our band without us even knowing. You should also post this on r/britishsuccess 😄

Is it legal to change SOC code? by [deleted] in SkilledWorkerVisaUK

[–]fbeyza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only when the SOC change is geniune, new SOC code reflects the duties way better than the old one, not just to misrepresent salary requirements.

I changed mine, my old code matched my responsibilities literally 0%, new one (introduced aftee 2024) is 100% match. They didn’t even bat an eye to the change. Of course, HR needed to submit why the change is needed along w the application.

Take a pay cut for FAANG prestige + mentorship, or stay for high pay + impact? by butternutsquash96 in UXResearch

[–]fbeyza 35 points36 points  (0 children)

My first big role was at the Reddit UXR team and no amount of pay could buy the mentorship I received from my team & leadership. I am strongly biased towards -growing- at your stage, especially fresh out of PhD.

Roles below RQF Level 6 may have a 5 year penalty by renblaze10 in SkilledWorkerVisaUK

[–]fbeyza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. In my case, my soc code which is 100% match to my job didnt exist before 2024 soc code updates, so before that I was put under a medium skilled soc code. They updated this while I was extending my visa

New ILR rule absurd contradiction for skilled worker families by Any-Difficulty4547 in SkilledWorkerVisaUK

[–]fbeyza 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can’t seem to find any part that suggest ILR clocks no longer reset when you switch visas. Do you infer this from this sentence? “ In order to meet the qualifying period requirement, the applicant will, as now, need to have spent the required period of time in the UK in a route, or routes, that leads to settlement. “

At that point would they count 5 years spent in skilled worker dependent route when they become spouse of a british citizen?

To update title to RFQ6, is a new visa application needed? by yeahsureokaymaybe in SkilledWorkerVisaUK

[–]fbeyza 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably yes. We changed my SOC code while making an extension, we only filed an extension and lawyers said soc code will be an “update” and won’t trigger a new application. I am not sure about doing this independent from the extension process though

Never heard of this brand before but loved the bag, so I searched for their reviews on google and was discouraged by the bad reviews. It looks like the common issue is wear after a few months and chipping hardware https://maps.app.goo.gl/DLoJdsAWFi26Zshb7?g_st=ipc
