you are coming into the UK on a visiting Visa you are not allowed to start looking for jobs and say
you want to walk within a period of time you'll be staying in the UK so let's say you're coming
to the UK for the first time or even for the second time and you are staying for like six
months of course you're not expected to start looking for jobs and say that you want to work
however you're coming into the UK can solve a lot of problems for Nigerians or even for people
who are non-nigerians in your community or in the community and in the circle of the person that you
are coming to visit so in today's video I'm going to be sharing with you five high-paying jobs that
you can do in the United Kingdom in the space of your visitation and I'm also going to be sharing
with you how to get this job I've actually made a video about this before whether you're coming to
visit you're coming to study or you are coming to work there are some skills that you need to
know how to do before coming into the UK whether you are a male or a female and it's going to help
you so so much so right now we just jump into the five jobs that I have for you that you can do on
your next visit to the United Kingdom number one is cocaine or baking C there are a lot of people
in the United Kingdom especially students and even sometimes professionals who just want the
food to be there like they just want to open the fridge and just and just bring out the food and
just eat it you get I've seen many people you know who pay others to make food for them in
bulk so they make the soup for them in bulk they make the jollof rice for them in ball they make
the fried rice for them in bulk and then they just pay for it and they stock it in their fridge and
freezers and when they need it all they need to do is to take it out warm it up and eat that is
sauteed food is out of it I mean that gives them more time to do other things rather than focusing
on oh what am I going to eat today um I need to go to the market I need to go to the store I need
to start cooking and especially for people who really don't fancy cooking so if you are a cook
or if you are good with making Foods or you are good with making our pastries you are good with
making snacks you are good with baking you know making changing making puff Puffs baking cake you
know Nigerian cakes are kind of just different from when you bought cakes you know how to do
those things there are jobs ready for you here in the United Kingdom because there are a lot of
people who will gladly pay you to cook for them to bake for them and to actually make snacks for
them if you see a lot of pain that Nigerians and Africans go through all in the name of making a
you will pity them I'm actually one of them so let me say you will pick yours
you will pity us I watched a video on Tick Tock sometime ago and the person was just lamenting and
lamenting on how much pounds she actually paid on making their hair and at the end of the day within
a week or so the hair was rough so if you know how to make here you know how to make braids you know
how to make weeds you know also Barbie hair you know how to color hair you know how to style hair
my sister my brother you have a job waiting for you in the United Kingdom when you come to visit
all you need to do is just make air for one person and before you know it others are actually asking
oh where did you make this here where did you make this here give me the contact give me a contact
how much is this I'm going to help you if your price is Affordable I mean if people are going
outside to make your hair for a hundred pounds and you say okay I will make mine for 80 pounds
you will get more people patronizing you taking myself for example my sister made this hair for me
and I can't count the number of people that have actually asked me even though she did not make it
as a professional professional I can't count how many people have asked me oh I love the color of
your hair I love your hair where did you make it and this like that so imagine if she was actually
staying with me how many people should have been able to make hair fall and should be able to make
a cool cash so if you know how to make here you know how to Barb hair you know how to color hair
you know how to style here generally you have a job waiting for you in the United Kingdom
the third one on my list is babysitting this must be the most lucrative job in the United
Kingdom that you can get as someone visiting the UK on a visitor's visa I mean people have children
people need to go to work people need to attempt to meetings people need to go to functions people
need to live their life even though they're in the UK in the UK there is no sister no brother
no mate nobody's like you know take care of the child for you it is either you or your husband
or your wife so when people see others that are willing to babysit for their children it is such
a relief because it helps them to be able to focus on other things be able to do their jobs do their
work you know and most of the time you don't need to get those babies or those children into your
own house all you need to do to carry yourself to the person his house and just stay with your
children ensure that they have their meals you know they get changed when needed they um they
get engaged most of the time they are with their small laptops or their tablets they are watching
just being there as an adult in the house that is majorly what is needed for you to
be able to babysit a child it doesn't need any years of experience you just need basic maternal
or paternal Instinct I mean you've got children you've got people you've got nieces and nephews
that you take care of back in your own country so watching over children in the United Kingdom is
just the same as that just making sure that an adult is there and the children will see
what they need at the right time that is it and you are cashing out your money at the end of the
day so if you're coming to visit in the United Kingdom baby citizens actually another job that
to on your visit number four on my list is anything Beauty talk about makeup talk about
tying your name you know I personally if I am to do a photo shoot or you know to do something that
involves applying huge makeup or professional makeup on my face I will prefer somebody of my
background to do that for me and I am sure that is true of many others too so if you are good
with makeup you are good with Billy tying this is your opportunity to make some money when you come
visiting in the United Kingdom I once learned on an event in London where are the entrance of the
Event Center there are actually people who are stationed today as Guillotine and makeup pros
and then anyone that wants to like they come to the party without their you know without already
tying their daily or without makeup already they just they sit them down and then they get their
makeups done they get their um guillotone and just like that I know that events especially over and
base they are not as common in the UK as they are in Nigeria however when I tell you that events are
happening in London especially London see that London is an extension of Lagos State events
are happening the events are happening and all you need to do is just to get connected with the event
coordinator and then you get yourself a stand and you start tying billing for people doing makeup
for people and God knows how much we are going to make on that day because if you say let's say you
are tying Billy and doing makeup for 20 pounds per person and you get to do that for just 20
people that's like 400 pounds in a d just for one event so imagine how much you can actually
make in your six months visits another thing is that you don't need an event to actually do this
thing I mean if you do it on yourself for example and you go to an event or you go to church or you
know you just go somewhere and people see it on you and they're like oh my God I love this I love
this I would like to do it and just tell them oh I did it myself I can do it for you and things like
that that's how you get yourself clients and with words of mouth you get more and more people that
will be willing to pay you to get their face made up and to get their daily price the next one on
my list is cleaning see as simple as it sounds a lot of people need help with cleaning like I
said earlier people in the UK or generally people abroad are short on time to do a lot of things
most of the time people are focusing on walking walking walking and there's just little or no time
to do the things that they want to do and that is where you come in as someone who has come to visit
in the United Kingdom look out for those things that people are struggling to do and then present
yourself as a solution to it and you get to make your cash so there are a lot of people that are
cleaning generally number one they might not like to clean number two they might not get the time to
actually claim and then you can come in and clean their house for them and at the end of the day you
get paid and you leave so let's say you get to clean like four people's house in a week that is
you know some sort of money for you at least for upkeep if not for something to be so cleaning is
another job that you can take on that you can do when you come into the UK on a visiting Visa now
let me chip in a bonus one for you because you've stayed up till this time in this video a bonus one
is um tailoring so if you have the skill to make dress or to join clothes together you are going to
make yourself some pounds when you come visiting in the United Kingdom a lot of time people buy
clothes and then they discover that oh it is too big or they've been wearing it and they just feel
like oh they want to slim fit it or there's a tear and they just want to correct that as long
as you have a sewing machine which is something that you can get on eBay for a couple of pounds
you can then start doing this simple simple joining of closed captioning not available
did it for me and he can do it for you if you want also the exchange contacts and that is how
you get customers that's number one number two you need to associate with people so when you come to
visit in the UK go out like go out go outside go to the mall go to the park go to events go to the
church from there your skills will be displayed whether on yourself or on others on other people
that you've done it you know done it on let's see if here for example you've made here for
your skills will be displayed and from there also you get customers and also with Word of Mouth by
the time you go to a mall you meet with people you let them know that oh you do this I mean there was
an example of that um I was in my church sometime um some weeks ago I just came out of the truck to
do something outside and I made this two lovely teenage girls and one of them just said hi to me
I said hello and she was just telling me Oh I make here and then start showing me the years that she
had made and orders he I was looking for someone to make my hair at that time and I didn't have my
braids on I probably most likely would give her a chance to make my hair so that is some of the
ways that you can actually get yourself paying customers customers that will pay you for these
skills that you've got do you think that I missed out on any major skills please let me know in the
