Unfortunately, many university graduates cannot realise their full potential in their own countries because of the lack of opportunities. Paradoxically, there are other countries where flourishing businesses need talent from the rest of the World.

ibecome is a free international careers service for university students, even in their first year, and graduates. We are developing links with employers and recruiters based on the information that our registered users give us.

Finding a good job in another country is difficult, particularly if you don’t live there. Recruitment is typically sourced nationally. There are a lot of barriers (cultural, linguistic, regulatory) separating businesses from international talent.

We help students, even from the start of their degree, as well as graduates, to prepare for international employment or study and find jobs. We support businesses who want to benefit from a more international workforce.

Employment in the UK

Employment in the UK

The UK economy is highly dependent on talent from the rest of the World.

The growth of the UK economy has not been historically matched by investment in key subjects in Higher Education nationally. This makes it essential to continue recruiting talent from all over the World, particularly, but not only, from the rest of Europe.

For the last five years unemployment in the UK has remained at low records.

According to the Office of National Statistics between January to March 2015 and January to March 2020 the estimated unemployment rate fell from 5.5% to 3.9% (unemployment rate for men, from 5.7% to 4.1%; unemployment rate for women, from 5.3% to 3.7%).

The need to employ workers from elsewhere in the World will not disappear for the foreseeable future. 

Despite the Covid-19 crisis, the UK economy’s dependency on talent from abroad is structural, and may grow even bigger as the country embraces the Fifth Industrial Revolution as an internationally autonomous player with global aspirations.
