As you may be aware, the Post-Study Work Visa scheme for international graduates is closing in April 2012. Purple Door Careers and Recruitment has arranged two events for international students interested in working in the UK after they graduate.
These events will be led by Adrian Farley, an OISC Accredited Immigration Adviser.

This presentation will provide key information on the visa options available to international graduates, and in particular the Tier 2 General Visa, which involves individuals gaining sponsorship from an employer.

Visa options and job search drop-in session

Purple Door Careers and Recruitment has also organised a Breakfast Briefing for employers, led by Adrian Farley. This session will update employers of the changes to the immigration rules for international graduates, and provide advice on the steps they would need to take if they wished to employ an international graduate.
