I posted the following in the "America Forum" ,had no luck, but read onto the end.
HiThere
Just over a year ago I visited Tampa and fell in love with the way of life ( it is not the first time that I have visited the U.S ) and decided to start doing some research.
I currently live in the UK.
Formany years I ran my own very successful Mechanical & Electrical Contracting Company with a multi-million pound turnover ( $10.5m ), after my turnover droppedto $2.250m I closed it down in 2008 due to the recession.
I had several staff on the books with a fleet of vehicles.
The state of the UK economy and the political infighting are devastating the Construction industry and resulted in the closure of my Company.
The question that I would like to ask is this.
Is there an upper age limit to work over in Florida ?
With all my qualifications, I am constantly applying for Construction / Site Manager vacancies, but as yet I have not had one reply, even to say I am not qualified enough.
So will my 2 “A” Levels, 5 “O” Levels, 7 City & Guilds of London Institute, 17 Accreditation Certificate and 2 ( Institute of Occupational Safety and Health )I.O.S.H, be recognized in Florida ?
Unless I am mistaken electrical and mechanical work is the same in the U.S. as in the U.K.
The electrical principle ( i.e. OHMS Law ) is the same wherever you are and the same goes to the principle of mechanics.
I am a single guy and presently live in rented accommodation, oh yes, I am also a non-smoker.
So if I am taken on by a Company I then have to start the visa process, unless that might be taken care of by the employer.
I have Skype facility should the need arise.
I would really appreciate it if the forum members can help me out with either some or all of these questions.
I look forward to your positive reply.
Regards
Tony
