  • I have been looking for work at UK since I started my course. I have sent hundreds of applications for one year, but due to my visa problems, I don’t even get a chance to interview. Overall, it’s just a frustrating experience.

    While I was working for a nonprofit organization at London. I also met some volunteer who is really talented is still out of jobs. It make me realize that this is difficult for all of us.

    I just recently found an opportunity to pursuit a PhD in other country, and I assume I will leave this country six months later after finishing my course. I just came here at the wrong time.

    In the end, I am going to stop complaining and wish everyone good luck. It’s a tough situation for all of us.
  • Hey Becky,

    Hope you are doing well.
    Are you going through the hard times yourself or are you looking for new connections and possible future collaborations?

    I am a design (visual communications) graduate but in the last few years I have been working as a freelance illustrator and graphic recorder/facilitator.

    I am nevertheless happy to share my work with you:
