Did you provide English Language certificate before they issued you offer letter?

Secondly, are we going to pay the Health Surcharge when applying for Visa? Or are we exempted

You should get a reply soon... Took them a week to get back to me with my offer letter

I believe being in Nigeria is a big hindrance to this care assistant pathway joor.
I applied over a 100 places and got zero!
I swapped and ticked that I have the right to work and viola three conditional offer within two weeks.
Infact, one of them we were over 100 plus candidates.
When we got to the *Rubicon!* And I crossed the reality bridge by telling them my apologetic truth; they Quickly returned the Jobs back to indeed/track.




My advice sha...just keep applying honestly if you want to tow this pathway.......I am closing in on 135 application now oh.... although



I didn't take the person specification seriously initially.....I wasn't re-tweaking my Cv for each Jobs.....and I wasn't strictly applying to COS-available Jobs.


To be honest, now I still get alot of *unfortunately afternoon mails* but unlike before I get clear explanations of why I wasn't shortlisted and now it's mostly around dia inability to offer me cos..... The offered salary doesn't qualify for the visa etc.
....



I hope to drop my goodness hear soonest.....I have stayed too long on this japa journey

Keep pushing. All you need is just one YES. Check out Buckland care and Priority Care

Straight sire

So a friend sent me a link to a care home in UK owned by a Ghanaian and Nigeria. After the successful interview, I was told to pay 3500 pound for processing of documents, accomodation and all�. Why are Africans like this? If I have 3500 pounds will I want to live Nija. Thank God for Nairaland. I told the guy I will get back to him. He was saying after all your salary will be 21000 and it's an opportunity for you bla bla bla�. It is well with our continent oh... Search continues ���

Guru in house please,
How will i know if jobs have sponsor?
Please it's urgent ���

Akorkor:
My dearest people, please, I have a family that has a Masters's degree in public health. What exam and what role is she qualified to apply for from Nigeria that can grant her tier 2 visa. I only know about tech. Please health people kindly assist with any information. I can make research just give me a hint then I will do the rest. Thank you

Public health is quite difficult to practice in the UK if you do not have a Medical degree. The role she is qualified for depends on what experience and what other qualifications she has.

If she has experience working in the hospital in a care role, then she can go for healthcare assistant/social worker jobs

DeeOneBangin:


Care Assistant

Then UK Naric should suffice

infinity2050:
Hi everyone
I have a Bsc in Physiology and an MSc in Pharmacology in Nigeria. I need your advice. Should I include my MSc degree in applying for care jobs or you feel it might hamper my chances in securing care jobs and m

It all depends on if you have some level of experience in healthcare. If you do, then it would be an advantage to include those qualifications.

aminlove:


Yeah, thanks. The priority visa them stopped now go delay things jare.

Don't think that really matters except you were planning to pay to get a faster decision in the first place which means you might be keeping an extra 300k to 700k (Priority and Super Priority respectively) for your application

Raechelle:
Does anyone have connect or can explain how I can get medium of instruction letter from Delsu.

You guys don't need any much connect for this... If you need it urgently, just go down to your school, make payment or a formal request/letter for it then look for the person incharge of typing it and all you have to do is tip the person to motivate him into taking your seriously.

All you have to do is focus more on jobs with opportunities for sponsorship... There are a lot of them on NHS job site so you can also try that.

Inorder to use the NHS jobsite, you will have to get a compelling work experience and supporting information

Finally, you must be truthful with your application. Incomplete information or misleading information can also lead to you losing an opportunity even if you were successful. That's to say, if you assume to have the right to work or indefinite leave to return, that means you can atleast take up some roles without sponsorship which isn't the case

My dear I totally understand....
At some point I wanted to query my capabilities...but when I dazzled them at the interviews and I saw an application that had 409 applications and I landed that Job......my confidence just went back to 100%....
We move though......

Japa must click this year I have stayed too long in this valley

Check below each job advert, if they are willing to give sponsorship for the role, you will see it just below the advert for the job

What about CoS?

Offer letter has been received 3 weeks ago and nothing has been said about CoS.

Application should be done using your degree certificate to avoid delays in your application approval

As regarding the payment, it can be done from any bank as long as you don't have limitations on the card being used for the payment

What is the target IELTS band acceptable by UKVI?im seeing band 6,just need to confirm please??

Yemite1845:



What is the target IELTS band acceptable by UKVI?im seeing band 6,just need to confirm please??

Based on my finding, a Band 6 score across each section should suffice for a health care assistant job but for some other professional like nurses, you will need an average of a Band 7 Score with no less than a 6.5 in any of the Sections (Listening, Writing, Speaking and Reading)

Widall:


What about CoS?

Offer letter has been received 3 weeks ago and nothing has been said about CoS.

The duration differs for different organisations. For example, it took the organisation I chose to work with 2 days to reissue a COS while it took over 2 month to even have another organisation I got an offer from to talk about giving me a provisional offer letter.

So you just have to be patient with them and provide them with all the necessary documents or information they might be needing. You can also regularly write to your recruitment manager to get update on the progress or status of the whole process

Thanks,I’m already a student in the UK ,my dependent (wife) is waiting for COS ,we only have notification of result (degree) ,can’t go back to Nigeria due to that,IELTS will suffice ….

I didn't provide a certificate before an offer letter but I was told to prepare one for my visa application.

No, we're exempted from ihs

You don't have to go down... You can have someone apply for that for you. However, you will have to send the Statement of Result to the person because most schools(if not all) retrieve that when giving out the Degree Certificate

Widall:

I'm not sure about that but I was told it takes about a day to come out after applicationbut the application for CoS can take days bordering on weeks.

Not sure about this tho dyor

Hello how long before getting a feedback after an interview, this is 1 week today no feedback on the interview conducted last week...

My dear, I will advice you to just write them by mail. And always ensure to ask for a time frame to get a feedback after each interview. This would help ensure you know when you should be reach them.


However, if its any consolation, I once got a feedback from an interview 2 weeks after doing the interview and for another, as soon as we ended the meeting, I got a call on my phone

Are agents necessary for this caregiver/HCA job search? Just asking for a friend biko

RichMedz:

The school policy indicate ,certificate can only be collected in person and no third party .

Don't mind them. Find one better connect, like a registrar or something and it will come out. I just succeeded in being reissued after years of asking for mine (names were misspelt). I paid like white man sha with many many bring this and bring that like nollywood babalawo....but it came out las las and was collected by someone I sent to the school.

CeeCyrils:

Many fake agent dey so just be careful .... if at all, you have to be sure that one can deliver

RichMedz:



Then UK Naric should suffice

I requested for the e-statement from Naric, is it okay for Visa application or I must get the hard copy?

Widall:

That's just fine. What you need is a scanned copy of the certificate/document to do the application
