    Hi all,

    Thank you for your replies :-)

    MarkTaylor: Yes it is Visa!! Have you already been told about the role??

    orphy: although you think the salary is low it is based in Basingstoke and is paying up to 55k which is quite good for the location :-)

    1bi: I made a mistake on the original post and that is why it now states 55k, it is in GBP!!

    Kind Regards
    Jade
