Immigrant Spirit - Find English jobs in Europe!

Hey Reader, You likely see all the same stats in the media: unemployment rates are low, yet people are increasingly feeling squeezed and on edge. You can look at all the figures and make a thoughtful choice about where to move.

The average came out to 47% of respondents out of 10,400 total saying they will look for a new job this year, According to the survey across 7 different countries. Out of those countries, the UK was highest at 52% people looking for something new this year. The scarier part here? The Indeed website is showing lower jobs posts than even before the pandemic in...

Dear Reader, Well, we made it again. 2025 came by and flew away just like that. I hope you are enjoying time with your loved ones and some much deserved time off.
