which non-euro country would be easiest to emigrate to for a british graduate?
Question by whingingpom89: which non-euro country would be easiest to emigrate to for a british graduate?
i am on my final year of degree in england studying BA top up in international tourism management.before this i did an FdA sport and adventure management.i am looking at getting to work within adventure tourism.im 21 and a british citizen.
originally i was looking at going to australia as i like the country,the people and the climate but iv heard that australia is much tighter to emigrate to than it used to be and theres loads you need and they are only taking on those skilled in certain fields.
i was also looking to emigrating to the US but i found out the US is even harder to get visas into than australia.japan and thailand were also places that i want to look into but iv heard that japan,like the others is very hard to get visas to and iv never been to before.iv heard that thailand is considered more of a holiday destination than a country to live in and that it can be dangerous for expats,as can south africa.
iv considered canada as iv heard its economy is looking for skilled and educated british migrants,but my issues with it was the climate,as im hoping to go somewhere warm.iv also considered new zealand but think its just a little bit too far away from anywhere else.
i wouldnt even mind staying in europe in france,spain or portugal but the euro these days is very expensive and jobs are virtually impossible to come across.im only going by what other people have said about the situations in the countries iv mentioned here but i have visited most of them (except japan or south africa) and liked them when i was there.
my favourites in order are australia,the US,france and portugal but where abouts would be best for a british graduate to emigrate to in my field in the current economic climate,ideally somewhere either fairly developed/western and safe with a warm climate although i consider myself a culturally open person and want to look at all ideas and may compromise for somewhere cold if the economy and lifestyle is good.
any information,help or ideas will be welcomed…

AS you have found, it is nearly impossible to get a work visa in a foreign country, especially as a new grad. You need work EXPERIENCE, then you May have a better chance. OR, get a job with a company that may post you in another country ( after you get experience.). To be honest…it is nearly impossible to get a work visa in any other country…and immigration is way beyond difficult. You could try looking into someplace like the British Virgin Islands…where you would not need a visa..but cost of living is high. Best advice, find the best ob you can in your own country, get 2 or 3 years experience, then look around again.
