To get a visa i need and job but i need a job to get a visa. How would i go about applying for a job when I live in England, please help?

You have to do a 6 week tranfer course (especially so you can be up on teaching American Lit). Your best bet would to apply at private schools (like public schools in the UK) as they are usually more flexible in hiring from abroad. In the NYC school system they have an union so it makes getting a job a tad more difficult. Send out your CV along with any letters of support. Great thing is if they are interested they will cover all your paperwork. And they will usually interview over the phone or get you interviewed by a sister/brother school in the UK.

Hmm, \n\nWell, you'll have to go through the process to immigrate. Unfortunately, the easiest way to immigrate to the United States in your case, would probably be through a Fiancee Visa. \n\nThere are other options that you can pursue, such as a Work Visa or Student Visa, depending on whether you are willing to work or go to school here. \n\nI'm assuming that since you said you are English, that you are either from England, or perhaps Australia. The type of Visa you can get also has a lot to do with where you were born, in relation to where you want to go. \n\nIt may sound harsh, and I do not mean it to, but people from Third World Countries such as the Philippines have a very small chance of ever getting a Work Visa, and usually either come over on a Student/Fiancee Visa. \n\nYou do have many options available, bepending on what route you wish to take. But make sure that if you pursue the marriage option, that it is something you both want.\n\nThese sites can be very helpful:\n\nhttp://www.visajourney.com - A forum maintained by users, all with some sort of experience about going through the immigration process.\n\nhttp://www.uscis.gov/ - The United States Immigration Services Homepage. \n\nHope this helps!\n\n-A.R.

If you are in the UK, try asking the British Council because I believe they are keen to have UK workers in all sorts of cultural/vocational/work schemes abroad. What about contacting UK based forgien (scuse spelling) country work agencies--make sure they're not dodgey ones though!

I'm a British TEFL teacher - currently in my third year.  Basically there are 2 recognisable qualifications - either Cambridge CELTA or Trinity TESOL.  The two courses are pretty much identical.  I took the Trinity TESOL.\n\nI'd also recommend taking the qualification abroad - there are lots of options for this these days - I chose Barcelona.\n\nGood luck!

As someone else correctly stated, you could teach in a private school.    However, any public school--in NYC or Long Island--requires you to have teaching certification.  You would have to get an education degree, and you must pass several certification tests.  You are then required to get your Master's.  (They used to give you 5 years to do that, but I think that's changed and you need to get it sooner than that.) \nBUT, New York City is so desperate for teachers they might still have some programs where they hire you and help pay for you to get your ed. degree and certficiation.  \nFor info on this, go to www.nysed.gov\nThat's the NYS Education Dept.

You have to apply to the American Ambassy for a Green Card.  Only way of getting work in the States.   It will take time and you'll have loads of questions to answer.  More so these days  I would imagine.

I emigrated from Europe to the U.S. but I lived with an American for a couple of years in the Netherlands, so I know a little bit about the adjustments you gotta make. It really depends on your personality. Do you speak another language besides English? If not, I would recommend England or any of the other isles around it. It'll be very difficult to find a job in a country that has another mother-language than English (which isn't to say that it isn't possible, it'll just be difficult). Culture and all are definitely different in Europe and they are completely different from country to country, so it's very difficult to generalize. \n\nI would recommend taking a vacation over there and checking out a few countries that you're interested in. That way you can also make contacts with folks and possible line up a job. It'll be an experience no matter what.

im also studying in italy with a student visa, in what area of italy are you studying and are you studying to get a degree here or just for regular classes? it also depends, do you already have a degree?\n\ni would think to have a work visa here in italy you would simply have to apply to a job (if you have a degree and they are interested) you can simply get the job offer, go to the Questura, get the papers needed, fill them in and apply. thats at least what im doing when im finishing my studies. this is also my last year at the university until 'io sono laureata' in industrial design. \n\nif not, just get a simple job kinda like under the table type of thing like so many people do here and eventually after some time, 6 or 7 months apply for a work vida, but you would have to be sure for what 'ditta' or company/restaurant youll be under.\n\nhope it helps!

Abroad?  Where?  There or here (in the USA)?  \nIf you are "there" and want to work "here", ask the embassy.

You will need to check if your qualification is recognised in the country in which you want to work.  (England and Wales have the same, while N. Ireland and Scotland each  have a different system.)  If it is not recognised you will need to qualify there, which typically takes one year at university.\n\nIf your qualification is OK, then just apply for jobs as normal - phone and ask for an application form, fill it in, and send it back!\n\nThe most comprehensive source of teaching jobs is the TES (Times Educational Supplement): their website is www.tesjobs.co.uk\nIt also has advice on working in the UK for those who haven't before.\n\nBest of luck.

Is there a law in GB that prevents you from working in the country?  Probably not.  \n\nDoes an employer have to hire you?  No. \n\nHowever, if you are qualified and have graduated from a recognized college or university, you should be able to find a position.

Here is a good reason why you were denied: You do not have a British Passport.\n\nWhen you say that you have lived in the U.K. for most of your life do you mean two weeks?  If you have more than 10 years of legal residence, have a home, a car, and make more than 1,000 pounds a month.  You should be approved.  Otherwise post a new question with your specifics.\n\nAlso, how did you get to the U.K.? If you went illegally, you are always going to be denied.\n\nDo you have relatives in America?  How did they come?
