Hi, I wanted to ask if somebody knew which exam is necessary in order for a foreign person to work in UK. Specifically a software developer.

I’ve seen there are two kind of exams:

  1. General IELTS exam
  2. Academic IELTS exam

Do you know which one is needed?

Not answering the question but if you studied in English outside of the UK it may be enough. But you need to certify that you studied in English through https://www.ecctis.com/visasandnationality . That is how I did it, and I think it is easier and can be quicker.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
