Edinburgh
 

I'm goin to live in Edinburgh at the end of the month....any tips about jobs, cost of living etc....much appreciated!!<BR><BR>Liz

Hi Liz,<BR><BR>I live just outside of Edinburgh, so if I can be of any help, pls feel free to email me. In the meantime though - try the Scotsman for jobs (on a Friday). Most ads can also be accessed online at scotsman.com. What sort of thing is it that you do?<BR><BR>Also, I'm not sure what your accommodation situation is, but be prepared for fairly expensive rental prices compared to other parts of Scotland (barring Glasgow). The last flat I rented in Edinburgh was &pound;400 a month for a 1-bedroom flat. There are numerous agencies to try for finding accommodation.<BR><BR>Let us know how you get on!

Elizabeth, I'm 10 miles north, but if I can help, get in touch

Hey,<BR><BR>Thanks for replying....I'm in the Tourism Industry,,,so anything in that line of work will do really, just taking a year out..picked Edinburgh cause I love the scots!!!!<BR>I'm travelling with a friend, we have booked into a hostel for the 1st week, hoping to find a flat pretty quickly.<BR>How expensive is it to go out there .....and what kind off wages are the norm?????<BR><BR>Thanks again<BR>Liz

Do you hold an EU passport? Do you have a work permit? If not, have you checked whether you can legally obtain work in the UK, and if so, for how long? Please check the rules at www.homeoffice.gov.uk <BR>

Hi,<BR><BR>Yes, I 'm Irish, so that is not a problem!!!!<BR>Any useful tips??
