I'm in a similar boat as you :) I'm from Slovenia and I've been searching for a full-time job from here. It really isn't a problem since most companies are doing phone/skype interviews these days. I'm actually coming to London today to do a couple of face-to-face interviews and I already have one offer. So really, the fact that you are in Italy shouldn't be a problem. Look here for jobs: http://careers.stackoverflow.com/ http://careers.stackoverflow.com/ https://jobs.github.com/positions?description=&location=london https://jobs.github.com/positions?description=&location=... http://workinstartups.com/job-board http://workinstartups.com/job-board http://www.3-beards.com/jobs http://www.3-beards.com/jobs http://www.cwjobs.co.uk/ http://www.cwjobs.co.uk/ http://jobstractor.com/ http://jobstractor.com/ linkedin ... Also check out the monthly hiring thread here on HN (and you can use my bookmarklet to make it a bit easier :P https://github.com/janhancic/hnHiringFilter https://github.com/janhancic/hnHiringFilter) I can also hook you up with a good recruiter if you want (my email is in the profile).

Thank you! How long did it take to get these interviews?

  Depends, some companies responded in matter of hours, some in a couple of days. Some didn't respond at all (or they will eventually). So after that we usually setup a quick phone chat the same or next day. And if all went well we continued from there. You really should first decide when you'll be moving. If it's in 3 months then I think it's a bit too soon to start searching. But once you do start searching things should start moving rather quickly. Just make sure you'll have the time to answer all those emails and calls :) And try to send a large batch of applications at once so you can have as many interviews at once when you'll come to London (it's not really cost effective to come just for one interview).

    Yes, my main problem is having to give a 2 months notice at work. I'll try find employers (or clients) that are comfortable with that. Thanks again
