Individuals looking for a job in the UK under the current system cannot apply for a work permit. You have to find a job, and then the employer must apply for the work permit for you. You may come across employers who say, "We don't deal with candidates who need work permits - go arrange your own work permit and then come back to us". Such employers are asking you to do the impossible, but don't worry - if you contact
workpermit.com we will be happy to contact them and clarify the position.
