I got tired of blindly applying for sponsorship jobs, so we built this…
I normally don’t post stuff like this, but after going through the UK sponsorship job hunt myself, I realised how mentally exhausting the whole process can be for international students and PSW holders.
You spend hours on LinkedIn, Indeed, Reed and other sites applying, only to later realise:
- the company doesn’t sponsor
- the role isn’t suitable
- the job is already expired
- or it’s impossible to know whether they actually hire international candidates
After finally securing sponsorship myself, me and a few friends started building something small called GradSponsor 🇬🇧
The idea is simple:
We try to collect sponsorship related jobs from different sources into one place and organise them specifically for international students and graduates.
Right now it’s still early stage and honestly far from perfect. Some jobs are manually reviewed, some are based on sponsor signals and public sponsor licence/company data. We’re still improving the filtering, quality and volume every day.
Current price is intentionally very low, literally less than a coffee monthly, because we wanted to make it affordable for students.
I’m not here to hard sell anything honestly. I genuinely want feedback from people who are actually going through this process.
What would YOU want from a platform like this?
- More jobs?
- Better filtering?
- Email/WhatsApp alerts?
- AI matching?
- CV feedback?
- Sponsor probability scoring?
Even criticism is welcome because we’re still building and improving it daily.
If anyone wants to try it out, feel free to comment or DM me and I’ll send the link 🙌
