Hi fellow TA's, in late September im coming over to England for 7/8 months.
I was just wondering if some of you knew any useful websites that listed jobs and also I need to find out the cost of renting/living.
I've done the usual googling but thought you locals might know the better places to look.
the sticky thread at the top of the forum for non UKTA & IRTA was also very helpful.
Thanks, |

if u want to live in London, i'm the person to talk to. You'll need a: a lot of money
b: dedication to work your bollocks off
if u want to live in the north u don't need either of those :toothless |

the best website for searching for jobs is www.worktrain.co.uk it has all the jobs that the jobcentre have on sytem all over the country.
basically its more expensive to live in the south, but u generally get higher wages.. the northern people are generally more friendly (with the exceptions obviously) but dont live in manchester ;)
if for example u were looking for a 2 bedroom semi-detatched house in chesterfield, ur looking at around £350-£400 per month :) |
