If yes, then book a place on our Working in the UK after studies workshop.
We will look at all the possible visa routes for international graduates into full time work including:

The workshop will also focus on how to improve your employability and how you can make the most out of your time at Sheffield Hallam University. We will explain the visa rules and how to maximise your chances of success.
The next workshops will take place in the Careers and Employability Centre (unless otherwise stated):
Follow a link above to book onto the session.
Is your visa due to expire?
If you do not book a one-to-one appointment to see an immigration adviser at least 2 weeks before your visa is due to expire, then we may not be able to assist you with your application and you will have to send your documents off yourself.
You must attend a group session before you can book a one-to-one appointment.
It is important that you attend a group session at least 2 months before your visa is due to expire. You will be unable to get a CAS application form if you have not attended a group session.
