Anyway, if by any means there are spots opening in the future that cover communication areas (I have partial formation in Film Making, multimedia, and marketing) I would be glad to know, even tho chances are slim for me to actually get an visa to work there... Specially because I do intend to finish college abroad. I wouldn't mind working my arse off and studying at night-time, but idk how these things work there in the UK. I may try in the foreseeable future apply for an visa there, but Italian bureaucracy has been delaying most of my documents which I still need to even try for that...

As for this position, although I do have knowledge about the requirements, I lack real skills on those, would need to sit on my arse and study all of that again hahaha

Good Luck finding a suitable candidate!

PS: I'm Brazilian btw, not that it holds any kind of importance besides the 3 language factor...

That's great to know!
Thanks for informing me. =)

So I've got 2 years then... Better pray for my documents to get past bureaucratic blocks fast then... We Italians should stick with cooking and avoid paperwork hahahahaha Not that I'm purely Italian, but you catch the meaning

Can you also smuggle people into UK ?

If I had any real experience working with PHP (C#/ASP.NET native) I would love to apply.

Awesome opportunity though, I've always loved the UK

It looks as though you may need to add reading comprehension skills to your Bonus Skills since no one is getting the "free to work in the UK" thing...

It is a pity that perceptions of telework capabilities aren't to the point where you would be willing to employ on a world wide scale, especially working on a world wide website. As it stands, I still have 10 + years before retiring, putting me in a position to consider moving. Yes, I am one of "those Gen X OGs" (Original Gamers....not Original Gangstas).

We've been employing on a world wide scale for 6 years now with staff in 5 countries on 2 continents. Read the blog post linked at the top of this article for more information on that topic.

That would be a job I actually like to do and put my heart into. A job that is actually about something I like. Sounds pretty much like a dream job given what the site is about.

But well I guess I am getting sorted out right away, 'cause somewhat overqualified to put it mildly, which is usually a no go.

[Tamaster92]

Would there be any aid in relocating from within the UK? Not expecting any monetary support obviously but help finding a good home etc would be nice for those elsewhere in the UK

shame its programming the thing i hate in IT

looking forward to see the new HTML 5 design for this site hope its comes out this year
