working in different field

Post by lifebird » Sat Jul 10, 2010 1:16 pm

I recently graduated from a UK university with a Msc in Biomedical sciences, how ever i could not find a job as biomedical scientist. Now i have been working in a company, and doing supervising job.

My question is do i have to work in the field that i graduated to make a successful tier 1 general application?

thanks for your kind attention and time.

I am on psw visa, and even people with considerable experience can hardly make 25.000 pa. there is no way people will find a suitable job in my field to apply tier 1 general.

Any idea what am i supposed to do?

Regards

For Tier-1 purposes you need not be employed in the area of your expertise. Its another matter as to what your personal preference is.
