Give International Students Graduating This Year More Time To Find a Job
Please provide a scheme for international students graduating this year to stay in the UK for a time period (greater than the four months after graduation) to find a job. Due to the difficult times we are facing many of us have gone home and have been unable attend interviews.
This has meant many of are finding this scenario extraordinary difficult to secure a job due to the limited time we have left after our graduation. Since the country is in lock down the 4 months we have after graduation isn't enough for us look for work. In addition the closure of visa offices has meant that we are not sure if we will have enough time to apply for tier 2 visas. Especially for those of us that are back home now where there are airport lock downs.
