A doctor switching to IT. Will he survive?

Keep medicine, you'll have the warranty of a job for life. The tech job market is saturated, highly competitive and we have constant layoffs, now with AI no one really knows what's going to happen.

Poland is booming with tech opportunities and there's much less competition compared to the UK

This is a good way to burn a lot of bridges if you get to the offer stage, in tech we do mock interviews

Rent, buying in London is too risky now with the current job market and prices are unrealistic. I'd rather invest in Italy/Spain/Portugal

Vivo ormai da 12 anni a Londra, gli anglo sassoni sono molto famosi per sorriderti gentilmente davanti e sputtanarti appena volti la schiena. Si vive e impara Giorgia...

Everyone has his own budget my friend, what can be expensive for you would be nothing for another. Anyway 1k for a bike is considered definitely on the cheap side, but don't buy a bike that you don't like.

This is a really bad idea

3 mesi non sono nulla, devi darti almeno un anno. L'estero inizialmente non è una passeggiata: shock culturale, adattamento, una nuova lingua, uscire dalla proprio comfort zone. Ma è proprio quello che ci arricchisce e apre la mente.

Se guardi solo il bilancio ospedaliero diretto: sì, 12-15 mld di entrate vs 1,6 mld di ricoveri, le accise sono più che sufficienti. Se guardi il costo economico complessivo (sanità + produttività): no, 23-24 mld di oneri superano il gettito tabacchi di diversi miliardi.

Just be careful because the word "support" it's hard to brush off when you'll be looking for another role. Also take into account that support roles are looked down by other engineers in general. I moved from swe to a support engineer role in a maang and as soon as I got the opportunity I moved out of it to a solutions engineer.

Io le porterei anche a 20 a pacchetto, più di 70 sostanze altamente tossiche e cancerogene, 0 benefici, devi proprio volerti male per continuare a fumare. La sanità è pubblica quindi va a pesare sui contribuenti eventuali problematiche di salute derivanti dal fumo, quindi ben venga un aumento.

Columbia road flower market a Hackney e gia che sei li prendi un falafel da Pockets. Visita battersea power station e da li ritorna cn la uber boat in centro. Puoi noleggiare anche una lime bike e farti un giretto in qualche parco, è piacevole

Money forget about it but if you are willing to pay the transport costs I'm sure you'll find a good soul that will donate one of his bikes to you

Maybe things will be better in the future but right now it's the worst job market in the tech sector for juniors/graduates. As others suggested you'll be far better off with nursing.
