recruiter don't go through your profile, they don't have enough time to read your profile. just highlight your key skills.
lion Roar Depends you are with. If you are interviewed by the top agencies they will know your CV inside out and expect you too because they have prestigious clients so they want to ensure you are capable. Recruitment consultants are all about reputation and agencies like Robert Half and Michael Page read your CV believe me.
To Misfit: This seems as if you are delving into the bowels of the high-class gene pool as if one is pursuing an executive or even a CEO position. It is the regular everyday person looking to start or pick up where they had left off.
Recruiters are bullshit. I work in cybersecurity and the recruiters just carpet bomb you with crap and don't even bother reading your profile first.
I actively ignore them and got my last job by applying direct.
Destroying the video mate 😹😹
I've literally never gotten a job through a random recruitment agency lol.
Fucking right mate. I'd love to do their job, cos they have a captive audience dont they ? Giving people false hope. I am registered with at least 11 agencies , only 1 or 2 have bothered to help me. All the rest do jack shit.
@Pete Marsden: You have hit the nail on the head. Registration is the easy bit. I think thats all they do all day . They certainly dont find people any work. They just ponce about.
Recruitment agencies are the worst. **phone rings** wow! Did I get the job? No, it's just a recruitment agency asking if they can use my data.
It would be so helpful if you could give us some tips on how to write a UK standard CV! :)
+*Yurika Lily* will do soon! :)
Also, you can upload your CV to tons of job listing websites. It also depends on the field you want to work in. A nd one more thing: don't use the Europass CV in UK. You need to use a UK type CV which does not have any mention of gender, age, date of birth or nationality in it. Only skills and experience.
can you kindly help me secure any job there ANY,, am from kenya
This video was so helpful! I typed in my search bar "first apartment in uk" and your "Horror Story + Tips" video came up. That was the first video I clicked, honestly that video educated me. I am 18 years old ready to move out next year and I needed a video like that now to see what i am looking at. On the side of the video i saw two other videos "Prices in London" and "How to find a job". All three videos have been helpful and I know what I am doing and where I am starting as I was confused on what to start with, work or looking at places. (I've lived in the UK for 6 years now finished secondary and about to finish college - I am Eastern European/ Latvian) This video was amazing, truly amazing. I am sitting here at 2:30am fixing my LinkdIn profile which I haven't touched or looked at since my teacher made me make it last year. Never thought it's needed or useful, after this video it is VERY USEFUL. Thank You Sandy for guiding me without even knowing it!
is very difficult to find a good job in the UK because most of the small companies are run by families, hiring process is quite biased unlike the US where there is a corporate culture, networking is the key, if you know someone then they will hire you, unlike the US age is also a key factor, local business tend to hire young people, discrimination is also very common
like Walmart......yeah we don't want that in the Uk. or companys ran like that.
lion Roar I worked for a company last year where everyone was related except 2 people. Trying to get those sort of companies to change is very difficult. I tried it. I work somewhere else now.
Alot of foreigners take our jobs because we are too lazy to do them ourselves.
@@1066BooBoy In the U.K. Asda is Walmart!
@George Stokes We aren't as desperate as foreigners for money. They are hard workers though
Really good video. :) I will be looking for a job soon in the UK after my course, fingers crossed.
I bow down to you, My Queen! The fact that such a heartthrob as you are looking for a job and not a sugardaddy is testament to the fact that you are a woman of very high quality of character.
Can you make a video on how to make that hair style!? You look gorgeous!
Thank you for the tips Sandy
im doing diploma in internatuonal relations i would love doing a degree there advive
very nice
Ppl are talking about jobs and u ignorant talking about lifestyle idiot girl😕😕😕
danke dass du dieses video gemacht hast! ich hab dich letztens noch auf facebook gefragt und habe mich nun sehr über das video gefreut! :)
+RandomGinger Ja, dachte mir das muss mal sein :)
Fantastic vids. Well done! We truly enjoyed it.
+Delightful Travellers Thanks guys ❤️
I had a CCJ i did Not know I had, this stopped me getting a job for companys such as Peacocks....so I hot work in the banking system instead.
I think the point is, the more anul the HR department is, the worse the company is run. you can get a job working for multi nationals, dealing with hundreds of thousands of pounds....but you can't sell a discount pair of jeans....and they wonder why they can't get a strong management team lolz
Is it possible to earn enough to live and study in University with a part time job without parents financial support

hi
An other helpful video! I'll be moving to bristol as an aupair in about 3/4 weeks and maybe i would like to find a job too. Soooooo....... I'm thanking you so much for making this kind of videos!
Is ez to find a job in UK, in UK i mean London.. just go to a agency and that's it... and btw... to leave in UK is not expensive if someone think this, if you are 25+ old, you will be payd very well, even with 1200£ you can leave here.. even in zone 2-3 to stay with a rent like 320 per month
You have to speak good english, to you can understand and others people can understand you...
I saw your video about how german girls dress and how english girls dress, and it seems to me you adopted the english style ! (And I love it ! I wish I could dress up like an english. I love what you did with your hair !)
Sorry, it has nothing to do with your video, I'll continue watch it now ! :p
Your video is very useful ! I didn't know LinkedIn was so used in England !
Tilly can you help me about job and visa please
I left London twelve years ago so I do not know if my knowledge is still up to date, but: Sign up for agencies not just to find a permanent job but also they can often give you temp jobs to tide you over till you find something more settled.
Temping can often lead to a permanent job but one catch to be aware of is that of semi permanent ie months if not years as a temp working for the same firm whilst all the while you can be canned just like that.
Also from my experience in London, it is no disgrace to take a temping job in one field whilst looking for something in another. Employers tend to understand that it is better to have some employment than none at all.
are we supposed to pay for the agency ? or is it free ?
@@Putjans no you shouldn't have to pay to register. If a firm asks a fee then get away from them.
@@persilbran Merci merci !! btw can I know the agency you use to apply job in UK ?
Im 17 and have been looking for a job for ages now. All these interviews and calls and still no luck.
Same did you find a job yet?
If yes, can you help me. Thank you

Hi Sandy,
I am a job seeker in actuarial domain. I have worked as offshore employee of Aviva UKL. Please advice me to explore the world there !
Just be careful not to get explored as my friend Justyna from Lithuania when she first came here worked as a cleaner, only got paid £5 an hour on a self employed basis , she thought it was good money , until people pointed out minimum wage is £7.50 an hour, many bad people running UK companies
Please make a video for international students after their studies how should we find a sponsored organization? Thanks in advanced.
Muchas Gracias....

Sandy, could you make a video about how to get a job through Recruitment Agencies
Thank you for this video so helpful. I have been moving around england past 2yrs looking for work in retail. I used to work in specsavers and toys r us. But really want to work in superdrug or tkmax since i will be moving again in a different city in the next few months. Its soo hard to get a call back from them sometimes , am i doing something wrong? And reason why i want to work in these places is that so i can tequest for transfer easily... Any tips from you would ve great. Thanks
D Pagne Probably not. If they receive too many applicants it is not worth their time calling everyone back. It is frustrating but that is just the way it is now. One talked me into applying for a job and going for an area I was not keen and then I did not hear back and I was so angry so I did call her back and she said the role had 220 applicants so she did think I was good for the job but so did many others'. I did not get that job but I did not do anything wrong but there were just better applicants. You just have to keep on going.
Really helpful video thank you!
No problem Tom! :)
This video is so helpful!
Thanks so much, Sandy! This was helpful! Would you say it's very possible to secure a job in London from another country?
Thinku for watching videos

Hi Sandy! I really liked this video. I wondered if you have any tips concerning student jobs in the UK. Is it possible for a foreigner to find a job for the summer (a few weeks or a month) ? Thanks! :)
Dear Sandy if a Recruitment agency select a person for a job in uk .will they pay for the visa and flight etc.or the person will pay for his travel expenses etc.i got selected as Receptionist in a uk hotel and the agency send a job offering letter.so i accepted it and now they are asking for a fee of 536 British pounds .they are saying that its for visa fee and process so should i pay them or not.
i don't know about that but be carefull of frauds!
nikos t
thanks
Try looking on Magnet.me! a new platform to search for opportunities :)
bit.ly/2n73h1M
I wouldnt pay it, if people are asking you money to come work in the UK - this could be fraud. There is a list of companies found on the UK visa website - that has authorisation to sponsor candidate, from outside the EU.
Reyuga Reyuzaki dnt pay they r fake

hi..my nationality is India and i work & stay in ME (Bahrain) i have apply many retail sales job in UK but no response.. so my question is are they hired from middle east also ???
Don't start applying for jobs until after you've calculated and compared the affordability of living in the different regions, and used this to figure out which geographic region you want to focus on.
Spoilers: North of England, Scotland and West Midlands are good. London, South East, South coast and South West are bad.
Now that you've read this, don't come back crying in a couple of years that you can't afford any more than a squalid little flat in a crappy part of London. This was your warning.
Hello, this video is really helpful! thanks for the posting. I was wondering what kind of degrees do you have and in which country did you get it? I am a Korean, who is interested in working holidays in London, but I had a bachelor's degree here in Korea, and I am not sure if there would be any opportunity for the quality jobs.
This video is very helpful. Danke schon, Sandy :-)
There's *way* too much emphasis on "How to find a job" nowadays. Finding a job is not difficult. Applying for a job is not difficult. Sitting an interview is not necessarily difficult. I wish they'd be honest and say "How to find and get a job you don't want", because nine times out of ten, the people who watch this are qualified engineers, who must apply for shelf stacking at Lidl, and have to somehow convince the employer that *this* is their chosen career.
Does it mean that bar and waiter job do not required any work permit even as a foreigner ?
In school I learned how to get jobs and I even tried and it went well

I want to find an internship for a Graphic Designer.
Hi!!!! How can I deal with the fact of been perceive like a "bossy" person. I just got a new job in a restaurant and I feel that my confidence is mistaken. Thanks!
Your English is amazing!
Danke für deine Videos...sie sind wirklich sehr hilfreich! Ich hätte eine Frage, ich weiß gar nicht ob du das beantworten kannst: ich mache eine Ausbildung als Kauffrau für Büromanagement, weißt du wie oder ob es überhaupt in England annerkannt wird? Oder generell wie Ausbildungen(in Deutschland absolviert) dort annerkannt werden? Vielen Dank 😘😄
Hey Sandy, what up? :) I recently moved to London. I love the videos..
There's too much mucking about with all this online application rubbish. It's harder than ever before. About time we went back 20-30 years when you physically used to go out and it was a lot easier.
I know graphic designing and solid-work designing also but my English is not very well and my education not too Much so can I do jop for UK?
Krishna Shah There is higher competition here. You need at least 2.1 degree or the best one 1st Class degree and Masters. You definitely need to have proper English level for your visa application. They will test you your English.
Tait i know i don't have any degree but i have experience and talent.
so there are not value of these things?
Tait Tait and one more thing my english is not too bad. i think most people understand my english. so why i need proper english level ? Maybe your information is wrong.
When you apply for your visa, they will ask you to write an English test before they can issue you a visa. English language is mandatory for your VISA application. Even immigrants who are already here , when they want to renew their visas, they are asked to take an English tes aswell. For further information search on google on their website or ask an immigration lawyer from your country.
As for getting a job here in the IT sector it's quite tricky, and like I said before, there is a very high competition in that sector. I know many people who are struggling to get a job in the IT sector. Most recruiters are employing graduates with at least 2.1 degree but mainly 1st class degree together with skills and experience.
Remember these recruiters receive more than thousands of applications and CVs. Its good to have a good educational background.
i think you are right.
thanks for giving me this idea.
now i am change my plan.
This is handy because as a Brit I am not good at finding jobs

hi thank you for the eye opening video. was wondering though how easy is it for an African to get a job in the UK. what is the success rate because it seems its easier for immigrants from everywhere else but Africa to get granted access. I have been trying well over 6yrs now losing hope by the year😟 tried Germany too because I would love to work for Daimler. Mercedes
Hi. You mentioned that you're a job recruiter, do you have any available job related to accounts? If that's the case, how we will apply if we are in tourist visa?

Signing up is very easy just follow this link when you get into the UK: www.coople.com/uk/en/industries-for-cooplers/student-jobs/?modal=registerWorker&xcode=6290a987-c13f-4bab-8a67-6101d8adeb2f&account=coople-uk&Streetteam&Unis&Ursula_Espinal

Sandy. Do you know any recruitment agency that helps English teachers as a foreign language in London?
Hello Sandy I follow your videos and love your guidance. But this one left me a little bit lost. I recently moved to London from Portugal. I am a Freelance Filmmaker trying to find works in Motion Graphics Design and also as a Film Director. I tried to look for Recruitment Agencies but it's hard to find really. Any guidance, link, helpful tip or actually representation?
Hi
Thanks for the video. Something is still a bit blurry to me though
Would I be able to apply for an engineering job in the UK whereas I'm living in Australia and am a Permanent Resident (not a citizen yet) and will need visa sponsorship from the uk? is there a defined or known mechanism for cases as such?
nice tips, for the agencies, it is OK to apply with them online or we should meet them in real? thank you sandy
LinkedIn is well known here in Brazil too.
