to be or not to be, a year in industry

大家帮忙看看到底要不要申请。就是进大学前的一年在一个相关公司工作一年，拿一办工资（10000磅左右），获得点经验。

对我和父母都有好处。他们可以推后一年对我的资助，事业资金流转方便一些； 对我学习一些船舶行业的基本知识有好处，这样开始本科的时候就心中有数了，不像现在这样一点都不懂。

但是，这会使我的毕业推迟一年，可能错过一些发展的好机会。从金钱上看，这一年我把它放在毕业以后，那赚的钱肯定是比放在本科之前要多。

愿听ggjj的意见。

未尝不可，我觉得一年的经验值比你一年工资的差价要值钱得多～

举手支持一下

有工作经验是为了更高的工资啊，是不是？

问过家长大人了，他们不太赞成

还是先毕业的说。

个人意见

这是一个机会选择的问题。

摆在你面前的是一个机会，你要不要

要，因为你觉得这个机会得不可失，失不再来

不要，因为你觉得以后还会有更好的机会，需要抓紧眼前的时间去追寻下一个机会

都要下筹码的，时间，金钱，运气，你好好选

鱼姐可说得真透彻阿

我想，万一毕业以后在英国找不到工作，那回国的话工资岂不是比10000磅还低？

可能现在先工作一年，找工作的时候就有资本了。。。。。。。

家长说：“那只适合英国人”

没主意了

i tried this before but they asked me for working permit.

for international student,non EU. you can only work for 20 hours a week but full time holiday.

so if you apply,you are likely that you only work part-time most of the time.

so your wage will may be less than 10000 pounds.

yuwei,what course are you reading?

I am going to do Ship Science.

As I know from the tutor in our uni, for us International stu we have 2 ways of doing it:

1. Get a letter from your school saying they keep you a member of students;

2. Get a working permit fro Home Office. Don't know any more about so called Home Office.

Among these two, the first seems to be easier.

But, Do you mean that we may go on our degree while work as part-time in a company? That's more exciting!!!

Contact me please. MSN: yuwei0@hotmail.com

I am going to the university to ask for more infromation today.

If this opportunity can be seen as work placement or internship for undergraduate, you do not even need to worry about Work Permit. You can definitely work as a full time. But, I assume that you have already been registered as a full time student now.

I think it's totally worth to try. The only thing is to land a position at first and convince your parents to support you.

Good luck!

我也觉得是个好机会啊,毕竟在英国读完一年也不一定能找到工作的,这样解决签证资金方面应该更有把握了……

可惜我现在学校的机器上不去这个网站，yuwei 能具体说说怎么回事么?

yuwei:

are you doing foundation?

i know both of these methods.

the first one will enable you to get a student visa,which you can only work part-time.

the second one is virtually impossible. i tried before. you phone the home office they simply don't cooperate with you.

i applied this scheme while i was a final year student at high school in England. I am a memeber of the Engineering Education Scheme which would help me to get a placement easier,yet i gave up the application. the main reason was that i didn't want to work part-time.

i came here in southampton doing a degree instead,which i thought was better. i am not going back to china this summer and so i asked my tutor whether i could work in a company during summer or not. he said he was going to ask for me. you see, this is possible even for a first year student like me.

even though i am not guaranteed to have a job this year summer, but i will definitely have a job during second year summer(school is helping us).

i don't know much about your school. i hope your school is doing the same thing.

anyway, i think it's much better to get some knowledge first before working in a company.

eg. if you have done two years of study, and you take a year out working in a company through the year in industry scheme. then you can apply your knowledge you have learnt into practise, and this will increase your chance to get a job in a company after your graduation. and possibly you are able to get a sp##被过滤##orship.

my strategy is to work during every summer in a technology company. while other time,i study hard on my course. and i don't not c##被过滤##ider to take a gap year . in fact, after your graduation, you can not only apply a proper job which you can earn 20,000 pounds or more per year ,but also can apply a job through year in industry scheme which is about 12,000 pounds per year.

so you are more flexible when you have finished your degree. company can get you work permit and you don't need to worry about that.
