Need your valuable suggestions!
My husband's getting permanently transferred to London for work, so our whole family (including our 2-year-old) is relocating in a couple of months. I'll likely be on a dependent/spouse visa.
Background on me: 9 years in IT, worked in production support roles, Business Analyst and QA/Testing.
I'm at a bit of a crossroads and not sure which path makes more sense once we land:
Job hunt immediately — try to land a BA/QA role in the London market, possibly even lining something up remotely before we move
Pursue further studies — use this as a chance to upskill/pivot (e.g. an MSc, a certification, or a shift toward something like product management, data, or business analysis at a more senior level)
Something else entirely — honestly open to hearing what worked for others in my shoes
Would really appreciate hearing from people who've been through this — especially other IT folks who moved to the UK on a spouse/dependent visa. What would you do in my position?
