About Glenn Brigaldino Expertise As a consutlant in international cooperation, I also work with job-search and human resource development partners. Can provide quick references to current international recruitment opportunities, especially in Africa and the EU as well within the international relief assistance community.
I am an American 35 year old single male who has been self-employeed for 10 years, first as founder and owner of a matchmaking service (5 years) and then in the metaphysical field as an author (love related) and spiritual counselor. I am interested in a career change and living and working in London, but from what I've learned on-line, work permits there are difficult to get unless it's for an upper level or management position that can't be filled with a current resident of the U.K. My question to you is this: How difficult would it be for me to find company in London who would be interested in hiring me? I have a BA in general business from UofA in Tucson, AZ, have experience as an entreprenuer, and am open to different possibilities that will allow me to support myself in London. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Answer Dear Stephen Petullo ,
hello and thanks for your question.
Not an easy one, but in principal, you have already answered it:your need a work permit. That is indeed hard to get unless you have a firm that is making you a job offer for some position that cannot be filled locally. Generally, the job market in England is bleak and low paying, not at all easy to land something in a new field. It is advisable to broaden your search to places beyond the UK, i.e. also considering international organisations.
