I did accounting and finance for my degree and graduated with a 2:1. When I was a student there I did try to apply for the graduate programmes, but only got to the assessment centre stage. <br /><br />Yup so here I am back in Malaysia now. I only started my career in the banking industry as credit analyst about 3-4 months ago and I reaaaaaallyyyy wanna get a job in the UK asap. I know it is super difficult to get a sponsorship visa there, I am well prepared for that.<br /><br />What would you say in terms of how many years I need to actually make it back to London? What role within the banking industry would be an advantage/beneficial or even more sough after in the UK?<br /><br />Also, I have a few friends who’s an auditor made it back, but so far I have not heard people within the banking industry made it back to UK. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo--> Do you guys have friends who worked within the banking industry made it back?<br /><br />Any thoughts are welcomed&#33; <!--emo&:clap:--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/rclxms.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='rclxms.gif' /><!--endemo--> ChasingLondon Expatriates Fri, 27 Mar 2020 01:43:25 +0800
