Job Searching in the UK from an American

I really have the experience to share about getting a job there after moving from the USA. First, I had to call and make appointments but sometimes they take walk-ins to a service and sign up to be listed as a job seeker. You are then tested on not just Windows office skills but basic math, reading, english grammer, alphabatizing lists and the card catalog system. They then take your information and hope to be called. What I didn't know make sure you get your tests results printed out before you leave or you will have to do that for every service you visit. Once called they send you out on interviews. Be sure to leave early and not be afraid to ask questions when it comes to the train and bus systems. Of course when you are hired you are expected to get a bank account to be paid your once a month salary. I landed a job with a great company name Danka UK Plc. which happens to be American company based in Florida. I also was the only American working there and liased with customers all over the UK, Irealnd and Scottland. My manager later told me that he hired the because I had worked for Gold's Gym and he has respect for people who work out and stay in good shape not to mention he was curious of what it was like there. It was a nice company to work for but now I'm back in the states. If you find yourself in Europe looking for a job good luck and don't give up. Health care is socislized but worked for me. Take an umbrella everywhere you go and wear comfortanble walking shoes. Cheers!# #interview #workfromhome #healthcare #foodservices #ridesharedriver
