International students working in the UK get work rights for about
20 hours a week when their course is going on and can work full time during
vacations. Students stand to earn 5 to 7 pounds per hour when working 20 hours
a week, which comes to 400-560 pounds. Part time jobs are widely advertised in
newspapers and other online sources. One can also look for jobs on campus as
they are the most easily available. Career cells at your college or university
can also be a great help in landing you a job. If you are going to study to the
UK for six months you need to get permission from the Entry Clearance Officer
before you work.
For those looking to work full time in the UK there is a point based system
that they need to clear. Students that are graduating from a UK university can
get a job with a registered company. Students are allowed to stay back for four
months after their course is over to secure a graduate employment. The
companies are mandated to pay a minimum of 20,000 pounds a year and the work
visa lasts for 3 years. There is a possibility of extending that visa for
another 3 years or more.
Post Study Work Permit
The UK post-study
work visa allows international students to stay in the United Kingdom after graduation
in order to find work, for up to 2 years.
The new visa rules
will come into effect for all international students that begin their studies
in autumn 2020 or later. During the first 2 years after graduation, PSW visa
holders can work in any job they can find, and the goal is for them to
transition into a general work visa afterwards.
The opportunity to
stay and work for 2 years after graduation makes the UK an attractive
destination for students seeking to start their international career.
· The Graduate
Immigration Route will be available to international students who have
completed a degree at undergraduate level or above at a higher education
provider with a track record of compliance and who have a valid Tier 4 visa at
the time of application.
· Successful
applicants on this route will be able to stay and work, or look for work, in
the UK at any skill level for a maximum period of two years. Beyond that,
graduates who have found skilled jobs, and who qualify for skilled work visas,
will be able to switch visas in order to continue their careers in the UK.
· This new visa
category, announced in September 2019, will be open to applicants from summer
2021, which means that anyone starting a degree this autumn, and who has a
valid Tier 4 visa when the new category opens for applications, will be
eligible to apply.
