In this episode of The Nigerian Abroad Podcast, we’re talking visas, but not the usual story.

We’re joined by a special guest, Tamilore, who did what many only dream of: he got his Skilled Worker visa straight from Nigeria, without first relocating to the UK. 👀🇳🇬🇬🇧

We break down his unique journey — from navigating job applications back home to landing a role that sponsored his visa, all before ever stepping foot in the UK. He shares the real tea on the process, what employers are looking for, what went wrong (and right), and how others can follow a similar path.

Whether you’re in Nigeria hoping to relocate or already in the UK exploring work visa options, this episode is packed with practical insights, honest experiences, and tips you won’t find anywhere else!

🔍 We talk about:

• His job search strategy from Nigeria

• Red flags to look out for with recruiters

• How to stand out to UK employers

• Interviewing remotely

• Settling into a new job and a new country

• Advice for Nigerians hoping to relocate legally
