What's the tendency for a Civil Engineer getting jobs in UK like Design and Construction of houses, bridges, road etc. BSC civil with 4 years professional experience in Nigeria. |

TheLasyBuddha: A lot (and I mean a lot) of Nigerians work in Social Work in England. They are constantly looking for people. Do you have a degree in Social work? Where is it from? I know that people with social work degrees from South Africa go straight into jobs |

Goddys: Lol. It all depends on your game. Lots of lonely women in UK. Flattery and charm will get you everywhere. |

Mindlog: Most definitely. I'll confirm this but it appears that it might be your only option if you have your first degree from Nigeria. |

Cousin9999: Actually, if you are hot then you can actually catch a very hot babe from any race if your bed game is tight. If you're that way inclined, then I'll advice you to hit the gym before you come here. Eat lean meat and reduced carbs (complex). Get as built as you possibly can and it's the babes who'll be making moves at you irrespective of your accent etc. |

Yinkasuccess: Ok, this is one of the professions where everything depends on your luck. Someone might be willing to take a chance on you straightaway or you might end up applying endlessly, or might not be able to move forward until you get a UK qualification. I'd advice you to seek out the UK Society of Engineers or a similar body and see if there is any category of membership open to you. Obviously you'll have to make sure you have all the details of projects you've worked on in Nigeria, and it'll help if they are easily verifiable. You can start applying from Nigeria. Forget what anybody says, everything depends on your luck and how much self believe you have in yourself. |

eastOFwest: I'm just excited for this profession. Yeah, I do have a degree in Social Work from the University of Calabar. I am yet to get called up for my mandatory service though. I hope to consider practicing in the UK but registering as a Qualified social worker is expensive in England. What's the job outlook for social workers in Scotland? |

eastOFwest: I'm not talking about intimacy. I'm talking about marriage and a green card. |

Cousin9999: But you'll have to get them hooked first and you don't want to end up with a fat ugly depressed 60 year old woman. Green card is a US thing. |

eastOFwest: I don't quite understand what you mean by expensive. Here is the registration body for social workers - https://www.basw.co.uk/membership/membership-types I've been told that you can apply for jobs in England with your Nigerian degree but you'll start at the bottom of the ladder at about £30k - £35k per annum as a permanent worker. England will be much easier than Scotland because there is way much demand in England and you might be interviewed by a Nigerian, other African or other black person. They will also require an extensive check on you - https://dbscheckonline.org.uk/faqs For you this will involve an international check too. |

eastOFwest: Nonsense. Just because a woman wants to sleep with you doesn't mean she'll trust and marry you, and go through the immigration process for you. Don't be ridiculous. 1 Like |
