Which sectors are you targeting? Banking, startups, media, energy? Also, getting hired may not be your biggest challenge. The London accommodation market is difficult. Apartments in desirable or even just acceptable areas are outrageously expensive, and get snapped up quick. If you're not a high earner you'll have to settle for a rough area or commuting in from dormitory towns.
- tixocloud 10y agoWhich sectors are big in London and Glasgow? Wouldn't mind startups either. I see. Any sites you'd recommend for me to learn about housing in London?
- osullivj 10y agorightmove.co.uk I lived in a scuzzy part of North London from 97-99 (N15), then a nice area (N8). Looking at rents on rightmove now, you need to pay ~1500GBP/month for an apartment in N8. All decent areas will be similar or more. Cheaper areas carry a higher risk of street crime. I left London in 2010 after three burglaries in the same year, and a knifepoint mugging.
