Topic: Reg. HSMP IT job - how the IT market is now in UK?
Hi,
I got stamped in HSMP and EC and planning to land in UK by 3rd week of June.
My technology is ORACLE PLSQL with junior DBA skills like back up & recovery and Rman, UNIX - not much in front end, but can manage in VB6.0. and reporting in Crystal Reports and I am having 44 months of IT experience in India. No UK experience.
Can anyone suggest how good the market is in UK for this.
I tried searching some, but all the jobs ask for some more skills. I am not comfortable learning new skills at this point and take a litmus test in my first interview...
Also, there are many people giving discouraging information about IT market in UK and asking people not to come to UK.
Can any one please tell me whether there is a good oppurtunity there in UK for IT market in the above skill set.
Any consultancies, if you are seeing this and want to contact me please feel free to contact me at sanadana@gmail.com
Thanking you,
Regards,
Sanadana

Hello Mate
First UK is always a good place for right skills.things you want to know is,normally its tough, as they give priority to britsh educated, then EU then only Non EU people.
Other thing is they dnt care that much about non UK skills.
This is my first hand experience, living here for the last 6 years.
Best opertunities in Oracle to my expereince is arround Oracle Enterprise Suite on E business, and ESB
Although these are fairly new technologies, there is a big demand.
I agree with you , you may not in the top tier of skill sets, and you may have to get some expereince here, and strugle to find right salary.
Not trying to make u frustrated, any uni graduate pass out in UK have great skills.So you may find competition very high, but I wish you all the best

Thank you Nasty Kid.
I infact coming hear a lot about this in recent postings, thats why got tensed up.
Thank you again for throwing some light on the subjet.
I was browsing through some forums in gumtree where people said there are some nominal paying job in excel, access, typing, and other un trained teaching jobs, which could be made use of for first few months to survive and slowly find suitable jobs - I want your opinion on this nasty.
I got my visa stamped on 21st of April 2008, do you think I should enter UK immediately and start searching for job and survive in middle tier job for some time till I get a decent job or should I go for some training and then enter UK and start searching for job?
Thanks again Nasty kid. I owe a lot to you dude...
Thanks and regards,
Sanadana

Hi
Well its bit hard, but i wouldnt not advice you to go to jobs out of your skill sets.do part time , until u get a good job.Its important , your pay packet is determined by your skills, and uk experience mainly
you should enter UK ASAP as taking toomcuh of time of your visa will take nothing but more pressure
I also advice asap you get a decenty job, get some proper training (Some thing like OCP)
if you dnt do, evolution from charles Darwin apply to you as well mate
best of luck
