- Q Can I work in the UK if I am from the EU including the EU accession Countries?

- Q Is a working visa necessary if I hold another passport?
- Yes, you must have a valid working visa for the UK. These are ONLY AVAILABLE ....
- If you are a Commonwealth citizen under the age of 30, then you can get a 2 year working holiday visa.
- If one of your grandparents was British you can get a 4 year working visa regardless of age.
- If you are a US or Canadian student under 30 (or have graduated within 6 months) please contact the BUNAC organisation in Connecticut who can arrange a 6 months BUNAC Visa.
- Q Do I need pub experience?
- Although useful, it is not absolutely necessary. Your personality and ability to work well with people is more important.
- Q How much will I be paid?
- This varies between pubs and the type of employment, but a rule of thumb is around £180 per week for a 40 hour week. See the UK Government’s DTI website for full details www.dti.gov.uk on the minimum wage.
- Q Where can I find accommodation in London?
- If you are looking for cheap accommodation then try sharing a flat in the Capital. Our website www.flat-sharer.com allows you to organise shared accommodation with like-minded people before you arrive in the UK. Visit the site for full details.
- Q What do I need for workwear?
- This varies considerably, but in some workplaces the following applies. Boys need smart dark trousers (not black jeans), a white shirt and a reasonable pair of shoes. Girls need a dark skirt (long or short, but not too short!!), white shirt and reasonable shoes. Some pubs do provide a free uniform.
- Q Can we apply as a couple or even a group of travelers?
- However you travel there is normally somewhere to place you. Single travelers
are very easy to place. Couples sharing a room or two girls/two boys are also
in demand. Groups of more than three are a little harder but can normally be
placed in nearby pubs.
