Job hunting in London




London, one of the most important capitals in the world, welcomes millions of foreigners every year, giving a chance in the “Promised Land”. It embraces almost 8.500.000 people and just the urban area occupies 1.800.000 km2 with plenty of life. 

In 2013 it became the most visited city in Europe, which means high needs by demanding tourists. It is logical that with this huge crowd, human movement in job market is a non-stop.

This is why, people coming from countries with a difficult economic situation, emigrate to this amazing city. Europeans have the right to stay, work and contribute in the same way as an English citizen. 

Usually, the he main purpose of Europeans emigrants is to get a good English knowledge in order to get experience abroad and a job related to past studies and experiences. This is possible and is happening every day. Young graduates move to London and, with a proper English level, it does not take long to find a professional job. A yummy reward after a fighting period trying to become someone.

But, what can you do if you do not own a university degree or you are not proficient in English? There is also a place for you here, at the beginning you can start in the catering sector, hundreds of vacancies pop up every day and this gives you the opportunity to have your independent life in London.

The situation in February 2014 shows that the economic situation in the UK the profits increasing, while the unemployment rates are decreasing. Furthermore, has been a historical month in women job situation, who reached the greatest rate ever.

It is important to underline how the job routine in London is quite different than in smaller cities: it is difficult to live around the area you work in, so workers wake up very early in the morning, to get to the working place, have their lunch break around 12 pm and finish their shifts at 6 ish. This makes you take advantageous of the sunny hours, having all the evening just for yourself! Obviously it is different in restaurants and hotels as the busiest times are exactly those ones, the time-off of the population: perfect if you are an owl who loves living during nights.

If you make your future in this city, you will not regret it! Gaining life experience and sharing your culture with the overflow mix!
