  • The competition is fierce and the companies are not willing to sponsor visas. If you have a PSW, you are most likely to secure a job in 6 months, but getting your employer to sponsor you is a bigger challenge.
  • The average salary that students land is around 35k pounds. There are various job portals and recruiting agents that help you find jobs.
