Career Advice for Internationals & Opportunities with Sponsorship

Career Advice for Internationals & Opportunities with Sponsorship

Fed up of rejections?

Have you figured out where you are going wrong with your job search? There are a number of reasons why applications are rejected. Trust me, the universe isn't against you.

Some of the reasons could be:

  • Incorrect CV format, which means it will be instantly rejected by ATS, or a human (after skimming it for 6-8 seconds before even reading it)
  • Not sending a cover letter
  • Mistakes on CV, i.e. spelling, structure, unnecessary personal information like marital status, date of birth and photo
  • Applying for the wrong types of roles (job titles can differ globally)
  • Not tailoring your applications and making the effort to include key words.

The first step to resolving this is to be aware of where you are going wrong.

I have a lot of free content on praino.co.uk offering guidance and advice on UK CVs, cover letters, job search etiquette and interview skills.

A good article to start with is how to write A Great British CV, which will help build your knowledge on the fundamental do's and dont's for UK CVs.

You can easily rectify and edit your CV yourself. However, if you would prefer a professional writer to do it please have a look at the packages I offer on praino.co.uk and get in touch.

If you would like to know more about how to make your CV ATS friendly, check out the video below, where I was invited to talk about this on Prem Kumar's youtube channel. Prem has been in my network for a long time now, and he is a perfect example of someone who successfully secured a job with sponsorship in the UK within financial services. Follow his channel to get lots of advice on how you could do this too.

Below I have listed some jobs and opportunities for international students and professionals seeking jobs with sponsorship. These are just some which I found. They are out there, so taking the time to research them is key.
