  1. Where better to ask than a Scotland national team football forum eh? Gutted we both aren't going to the World Cup. Anyways... (asking in as many places as possible to get the best answers) Hello. The thread title is pretty self-explanatory, but I’ll put a bit more background info. In here. I’m a 24 year old male who lives in Northern Ireland, and I’m looking to move to Scotland next year or so. Aside from family, there’s nothing much for me here, and I’ve always loved Scotland, and I feel this is something I have to eventually do to proceed to the next step in my life. I have a friend who goes to university there over in Dundee, and she highly recommends it to me. However, I obviously have a load of questions, and I’m struggling to find answers online. I have about £5,000 raised up for the move, and I’d be looking at renting a flat. I’d love to live in the Perth area, but is it affordable for someone like me? What is some of the more affordable areas? I only work about 22 hours a week at the moment for a retail company in Northern Ireland in the North Coast area. In terms of experience, I only have had two previous jobs in the retail sector. I’m also going to undertake an SIA license course next month to qualify for some security work, so I guess that’s something. Would there be work for me around the Perth area, or areas like Glasgow? How would I find out? Do I make sure to get the job before the move, or after? (I’d be afraid incase I wouldn’t get any work). If before, how’d I explain to employers? I just have a lot of confusion over that part. Suppose I could ask for a transfer next year at my current place if a position with enough hours in Scotland opens up, or at least transfer and then seek somewhere else. Would my driving license in NI also be valid in Scotland? I’m also prescribed to antidepressants, so I assume I’d have to register to a different doctor in Scotland too, with confirmation of my medical history from my current doctor? Alongside this, when moving, how’d I’d move some of my personal possessions over to Scotland? i.e. record collection, guitars, television, etc.? If someone could provide some info., it’d be brilliant. Thank you. 13 comments share save hide report
