Working Across The Pond
For those of you in Scotland, Ireland, or England. I was wondering if any of you could possibly give me any information about working over there. First off, as I've mentioned previously, my fiancee and I our going to Scotland to get married and plan to spend our honeymoon in both Scotland and Ireland. We're figuring on a two and a half week stay between the two places. However we would both rather stay longer. An extended stay of a few months to really check things out would be great. We would also really like to check into the possibility of moving to one of these area full time.
Let me start by saying that I'm 31, I'm a skilled tradesman with 13 years of experience in floor laying. Carpet, vinyl. hardwood, etc.
With that trade I was guaranteed a job and residency in New Zealand last year, however my fiancee did not want to stay permanent basis. So we decided to stay here in the states.
She is much more excited about the possibility of moving to Scotland or Ireland however. So I was wondering if anyone in here has any experience of knowledge in this area. Know the ins and outs of being able to work over there. What the job market is like for my trade. Things like that. So if anyone has any helpful information it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch guys!
