Title is not a problem. You can have any title. SOC code and Job Description must be same. The only problem may be Salary. Minimum salary in 1136 code is 25k. I think atleast he need to get 25k.

Usually UKBA will allow to do biometrcis, if the application is ok. So your friend may be in safe position.

@godistrue Hi thanks for the reply. minimum salary is 25K ? so they will match it to the minimum salary? 25 k is for QA manager my friend's job description does not match that I am afraid.

Biometrics are done before the application is processed. This is a big myth among the applicants I think so biometrics is just a process on application and does not guarantee the application successful. So can any one endorse this please? lot of people assuming if the biometrics is done then application is good this is not true .

Thanks for the reply

In that job code the minimum salary is 25k. So atleast your friend need to match any salary from that code. If the job description doesnt match, they call to HR and HR has to be prepared about these things.

@godistrue

Thanks for the clarification. the job title is QA manager (computer
and video games): £25,000

Here my friend is Head of IT in telecoms company and is no where near a QA manager he manages sort of call centre.

That is a good advice hope UKBA calls the company but this is going to be challenging as they wont be able to match his role to QA manager but to some other and also his salary has to be matched. I will let him know about this

Many thanks

Its not to match QAManager. It has to match the proper one from any of the Job Title with salary.
