Hi All,
I'm going to be 26 soon and I'm planning to materialise my plans to work in the UK with the 2 years working holidaymaker's scheme. I have a Diploma in Economics from the Univ of London and a BA in International Business Administration from Univ of Northumbria. I've been attached with Xerox, Malaysia Operations for almost 3 years in total (including temping during the summer breaks). Am currently a Confidential Customer Satisfaction Assistant, Marketing Planning Division. Main tasks are to conduct 2 in-house researches-these reports will be blasted to all the sales managers and marketing personnel for their planning purposes.
Having said all that, I am still skeptical as to whether I’m able to secure a decent office job in London. Well, I was told by my English friends that there's currently an abundant of jobs in the UK and the employers are finding it hard to recruit skilled people to fill in these positions. I find it hard to believe when told I would have absolutely no problems in getting a job there, given my qualifications and working experience. Not wanting to tell them how hard I find that to believe in, I have no choice but to seek the opinion of visitor’s to this forum. I was wondering, what type of job am I able to undertake. Am I able to secure in-door, office jobs? Kindly assist and thanks in advance.
Warmest regards,
Kempes
