If the applicant is successful after the interview, the employer will issue them a unique reference and a sponsorship certificate.

With the sponsorship certificate, the applicant would then proceed to apply for a UK skilled worker visa, having secured employment in the UK.

She said such jobs could be found on LinkedIn, Indeed and other legitimate websites.

Commenting on the topic, Toyyib Adewale Adelodun, who has insights on how the system works, confirmed what the TikTok lady said.

His words:

"With direct employers, an applicant from Nigeria will need to check if the employer has a license to sponsor their visa before applying/contacting them. Once the applicant sees the company on the list, then they need to work on their CV and apply. Once successful, the next step is applying for the skilled worker visa."
