Hi All,

I am a new member on this forum. I have been just going through the recent messages regarding the sponsorship of HSMP through the British companies.
I am a software engineer working in India and having around 6 years of experience in developing Java/J2ee web applications.
As I want to explore better carrier opppurtunities abroad, I will try to find related jobs in UK.

If any body who has been in the same situation, kindly help me by sending some links or company website links , who basically sponsor eligible candidates.

My email id is "tanushreedutta0@yahoo.co.in".

Thanks in anticipation,
Katanj

hi kyle,
can you pls. email me at mattscontacts@yahoo.com the agency details.

regards matt

[quote="Kyle"]AVI - great advice, it took me over £2,000 to find the right company. I have an MBA from Florida State, which I was told would help me to find a good job. I did find a job but they wanted me to do the running around for the ork permit.

I wanted to do it on the cheap and decided to do the papaer work myself after reading a lot on information and getting tips from people who'd been through the process. I gave all the information to my potential employer and the application was refused - the company then dumped me.

I went to IAS as someone above mentioned, and three different people gave me conflicting advice. A flat mate said she heard a company called Breytenbacs (or something like that) was good. They charged me to see them and their advice was terrible.

I did find another employer willing to get a work permit for me, but again I had to do the running around. The company made the application and it was refused based on advertising.

I did find a company who are absolutely brilliant and somehow got the refusal overturned - I have recommended lots of people to them. I want to mention their name but I don't want this to seem like an advert by them.

All I will say is there are many employers who will give you a chance, but they are hard to find. There are many agencies out there, but few who give honest and clear advice (and for free). I have now been here for two years and I am having a great time.

As for the IAS, I think the person who wrote that comment must work for them or must of had some baaad advice from a bad agency.[/quote]

Mr Lateer et al,

This thread has been going for more than a year with dozens of requests for assistance. I have never yet seen anyone post any helpful contacts.

Be careful about posting your contact details as they are ready to be harvested by those who would like to exploit rather than help you.

Good luck in your enquiry. Best site of all is actually the Home Office website for the UK or the British Embassy website for your country which gives details of all the available schemes and warnings how to avoid scams.

There are no laws against actually giving out work permits, you just have to follow the guidelines. What we ask our applicants to provide is the the last 3 years references (on headed paper) copy of passport signed by a Justice Of The Peace and copies of education certificates (again signed by a JP). The whole process at the moment is taking 2-3 weeks to turn around. If people are charging £1,000 that means they are pocketing £850 for their time which is a rip off....the forms take 25 minutes to fill out....I know because I have bee doing these applications for 7 years.......this obviously doesn't apply to everyone, only those with good skills.....Hope this has given some of you some help....

Have a look at the British Embassy website for the largest city in your country. This will give you an idea of all the schemes they currently have to gain employment or visas in the UK.

Is it possible that you can get back to me? I will send you my C.V,
I am strong in SAS, I find lot of SAS vacancies but not able to get a job.

My email is vasuvijayan@gmail.com
