The UK has excellent teaching resources and the teaching level of British universities is very high. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of students studying in the UK has gradually decreased, but some people will still go to the UK to study. Next, let’s take a look at the work policy analysis report of studying in the UK.
After the official cancellation of the PSW work visa for international students after graduation in April 2012, people’s enthusiasm for studying in the UK once decreased and the trend of studying in the UK slowed down.
However, since 2013, the UK has announced a lot of good news so that students who stay in the UK can work in the UK during their study and after graduation.
According to the consul General, from April 2013, students who completed their PhD in the UK have 12 months after graduation to find a job or start a business in the UK.
This means that PhD students can concentrate on their studies and scientific research while they study, and then have enough time to find suitable jobs and gain work experience in the UK.
Ways to Find a Job The university organizes a job fair every year for employers to meet students directly.
Attending such events will allow you to meet face-to-face with employers, learn about the situation, or sell yourself.
If a company likes you, they’ll ask for your resume or take down your contact information, and they’ll be in touch.
(2) School Career Advice Center Almost all colleges and universities in the UK have career advice centers, which provide guidance to students on how to choose their ideal jobs.
There is also a wealth of employer information and the latest employment information.
(3) Newspapers British newspapers and magazines publish many job advertisements every day, among which professional media are highly targeted and comprehensive media have a wide range.
In addition, there are often hidden secrets in business news.
For example, when a company gets a new project, when a company is expanding, or even when there are promotions and transfers within a company, all these indicate that the company is likely to hire new people.
Whether university libraries or community libraries in the UK, there will be a large number of books on job search and employment for reference, such as how to design a CV, how to network, interview skills, who’s Who or company details, etc.
What is a PSW visa?
The PSW stands for post-Study Work Visa and is valid for 2 years.
International students who receive a UK PSW visa will have two years after graduation to find work or set up business in the UK.
Firstly, under the latest policy, all bachelor’s and master’s graduates graduating in the summer of 2021 and beyond are eligible to apply for a UK PSW visa.
They can look for work in the UK for the duration of their visa.
Undergraduate students can apply for a two-year visa and doctoral students can apply for a three-year visa.
Due to the impact of the epidemic in the UK on study abroad, the British government has made new adjustments to the PSW policy:
¡Ñ Students enrolling in a one-year Master’s programme in January 2021 can still apply for PSW provided they arrive in the UK before 27 September 2021 and complete their final semester in the UK. For one-year Master’s programmes starting in September 2020, arrival in the UK is required on or before 6 April 2021,
I was admitted as a graduate student in 2020, but due to the long duration of my course followed by an internship, the offer letter stated that the course would end at the end of May 2022.
Can I apply for PSW?
A: All graduates with bachelor’s and master’s degrees who graduated in the summer of 2021 or later are eligible to apply for the PSW visa.
Undergraduate students can apply for a two-year visa and doctoral students can apply for a three-year visa.
Therefore, you can apply for a UK PSW visa if your graduation date is after the summer of 2022.
Please note that international students graduating in 2020 will not be able to apply for a visa, including those graduating between January and March 2021.
In addition, the applicant must apply for the PSW visa while the student visa is valid.
Q: Can I still apply for PSW after graduation?
Can I apply in advance?
A: After obtaining the required compliance materials for the application, the application can be submitted.
Please note that the application needs to be completed before the student visa expires.
In general, the epidemic is a double-edged sword. It not only makes the epidemic prevention process more troublesome, but also makes it easier for students to work in the UK.
