You are subject to the usual student employment restrictions, so you cannot be self-employed, or a professional sports person or entertainer, and you cannot take a permanent vacancy.At the end of the four months you must either leave the UK, or have applied for another visa. If you apply for a work visa (Tier 2), you may continue to work full time while the Home Office processes the application.Tier 2 (General)Most students use the Tier 2 (General) visa if they wish to work in the UK. The requirements for Tier 2 are more flexible for those applying in the UK with a valid Tier 4 visa, provided they have studied on this visa. The requirements are also more flexible for those applying for a PhD level job, or earning over £70,000 per annum.For Tier 4 (General) visa holders wishing to switch into Tier 2 (General) the requirements are:• You must find an employer willing to offer you a job and ‘sponsor’ you. The employer must be licensed to the Home Office.• You must be offered a job which pays at least £20,800 per year (£20,500 if your certificate of sponsorship was issued before 6 April 2015).• You must have a Bachelor’s, Master’s or PhD degree, or have completed the first year of a PhD. Postgraduate diplomas (unless a PGCE or PGDE teaching qualification) will not be accepted.If you apply in the UK and you still have leave remaining on your student visa, your employer will not have to pass the Resident Labour Market Test. This means that your employer will not have to search the UK and EU job market and prove that you were the most suitable applicant, before they can offer you the job. Furthermore, your application will not affect the restricted numbers of non-EU applicants that your employer can offer a job to. This will make it much easier for an employer to offer you a position in their company.Once you have submitted a Tier 2 application, you can take a permanent full time job while waiting for the visa to be processed.If your application is successful, you will be given a visa valid for 3 years, which you can extend for a further 3 years. After 5 years, you can apply to settle in the UK provided you are earning at least £35,000 per year or if the job is on the Shortage Occupation list, is a PhD level job, or if you have Tier 2 (Minister of Religion) leave.Please note that the University’s Immigration Advice Service is not able to advise on work visas, so questions should be directed to the HR (Human Resources) department of your potential employer.</blockquote>
