Hi all,
After another long vacation to the US and now being in the position where I am independent and free to do as I please I am looking more and more into the possibilities of moving to the US perminantly. Its a great country and can see very few downfalls over being in England but many plus points! Of the places i have been the west coast is where's standing out, outskirts of LA would be ideal.
I am 24years old, British and single with a degree in Quantity Surveying and Commercial Management with 6 years experiance with a top utilities company, owned by a large multinational (unfortunatly with no ties in the US though). I have a bit of money, enough for a house deposit in the UK.
I have had a read around the site and some other threads and it seems very difficult to obtain a visa to work and stay in the US. However i would like your views on my chances, the best ways of going about it and whether there is anything i can do to increase my chances, i am young and currently havce a decent job that i enjoy so i have time on my side.
I will not be looking to make any big moves such as quitting my job here and booking a one way ticket untill next summer at the absolute earliest due to family reasons so i have a while to look into my options.
Thanks in advance...
