Question
Hi there!
I am a recent graduate of UCSD with a BS in psychology with an emphasis on the law. I would like to pursue graduate studies and a career in the UK. I have had much conflicting advice on whether or not this is possible. In your experience would it be possible for someone with an undergrad from the US and a graduate degree from the UK to obtain employment in the UK?
Thanks a bunch,
Lo
Hello Lo!
The USA and Canada accept fully the qualifications of a European job candidate, the same applies within the educational system. I honestly see any problems.
I guess that I was not too much help, however if you encounter employment problems, I have just set-up a webpage with over 20 career related information that you will find useful. Click on http://www.tjmcareers.com
This site has lots of career related information, including resume preparation advice. You may find my career information useful. You may send your resume to ThomasMcAlinden@aol.com and I will look it over, and provide an honest evaluation.
Remember that we are volunteers here at AllExperts and as such would appreciate if you would grade this response and perhaps make a few comments.

Good luck and God Bless!

| Comment | Thanks so much, the answer was a little unclear but I think understood that you said canada and the US would accept my degree from the UK? I did ask about the UK accepting it but thank you for being so prompt and for the website! | ||

Expertise
After a highly successful 30+ year career in personnel and human resources, in tandem with a Masters in Human Resources degree, a Master of Science in Psychology, and a Master of Arts in Sociology and Philosophy, I am rather confident I can answer almost any question related to the Resume Preparation field.
Experience
Over the past 50 years, I have had the privilege of working for a number of small and large US and Canadian firms and government agencies as a human resource specialist and vocational psychologist. Although I am currently retired, I now offer my services at reduced rates to various international employment agencies and career conscious individuals find it advantageous to undergo vocational testing prior to having their resume prepared. Those who may be similarly interested are invited to contact me at: tjmcalinden@sympatico.ca. Unfortunately, the days when the job search candidate could "going it alone", depend on old vocational skills assessments, and then just prepare their own employment presentations are over.
