- Ensure you have the relevant work visa and passport before coming to the UK
- Look at setting up your bank account and getting a mobile before you leave home. This save a lot of time and stress when you arrive
- Look into Pay and Tax implications for the UK. Working as either PAYE or Limited Company.
- Always double check the documents that you need:
- References - both written work references and a written bank reference. These will siginificantly help etting a job as well as setting up a bank account and finding accommodation
- Drivers Licence - if you are planning to drive, get an International Drivers licence
