[@isaacafrica]

Gracias guys🤝

[@nakulgarg2314]

Very helpful Isaac 🙌.. your videos about global talent visa most detailed and relevant across KZbin. You boost my confidence man 💯

[@isaacafrica]

Thanks for your kind words, Chief. I do have a playlist for the Global Talent visa on the channel. You should check it out!

[@onohchibyke4943]

Thank you for this video. Did you get in through exceptional talent or exceptional promise?

[@adeniyiopemipo4294]

Thank you for this very detailed and informative video

[@isaacafrica]

My pleasure, great man

[@henrychika8890]

This is impactful. Thanks much for this video

[@isaacafrica]

You're most welcome!

[@prernashinde9907]

Thankyou for the video, Im looking to apply under tech nation but Ive expertise in tech as well as business as an entrepreneur, no exp working for other company in the UK. How would that impact any idea? Like its not fully technical and business application.

[@lalafresh1888]

You’re doing a great job. I would like to ask how do I properly reference a paragraph and subsection of the global talent assessment panel feedback during a review. Thank you 🙏

[@isaacafrica]

Try to write as though you're telling a simple story with proper paragraphs after each thought. All the best!

[@ntlabs4947]

This is super useful. I am in the process of preparing my documents for submission. Can you list out what are the 10 documents that you often refer to in your videos throughout? As I can understand 1) CV - 1 Document 2) 3 Recommendation Letters - 3 Documents 3) Personal Statement - 1 Document 4) Evidence for 1 Mandatory Criteria - 1 Document 5) Evidence for 4 Optional Criteria (Out of which at least 2 must be satisfied) - 4 Documents Can you please refine me if I am wrong? Thank you and God bless you

[@dickejike1661]

Thank you for your very insight video. You mentioned that in putting together your evidence, one should write 1 to 3 page paragraph to explain their evidence, including screen shorts where applicable to explain the evidence. My question is, can I also upload a one or two page document within the 3 pages allocated for a particular evidence?

[@isaacafrica]

Yes, you can upload one or two pages document. If it's too large, simply upload the doc on Google Drive and hyperlink the screenshot inside the Evidence document.

[@dickejike1661]

Secondly, I obtained a PhD Chemistry degree from the UK and have worked in Nigeria as a Lecturer for about 1 year. Do you think I stand a chance with the exceptional promise having worked as a lecturer for only one year?

[@marcelodecastrooficial]

Great video Isaac! I have some recommendation letters, but the dates on the header are more than 6 months ago and I may no longer be able to contact the author. Can you tell me if there would be any problem presenting these letters? Thanks!

[@isaacafrica]

Hmm, that could raise a brow. Try to get new letters with closer dates

[@michaellbajo]

Thanks again for this wonderful video, Just to be clear a piece of evidences is limited to 3 pages and you can't submit more than 10 pieces of evidences.

[@isaacafrica]

Correct!

[@Tech_Nexus_Academy]

Thank you for the guidance you provide for those applying for Tech Nation Visa. Please, I'm on the stage of supplying my pieces of evidences. Please, what format can I supply my evidences?

[@isaacafrica]

Please watch the video or simply book a private session with Isaac here selar.co/1d6v

[@abdusalamfatai4880]

Can i get a template for the letter of evidences and Recommendation. Thanks

[@khaddy076]

Hi Isaac, thanks for this, i want to know if i can upload pictures of events as evidence

[@rayhaxo]

This is really insightful. Thank you for this video. I'm applying via the fashion route and we’re expected to provide not more than two pages for each evidence. We're also required to show media presence and web presence. Is it okay if I also show my business website as an evidence?

[@isaacafrica]

Absolutely. Your business website is a major evidence that should be well showcased among other evidences.

[@rayhaxo]

@@isaacafrica okay, thank you.

[@abdelmalekhamza9658]

Thank you for providing informative and detailed videos. Is the business plan considered to be an evidence of viability for a startup? Best regards.

[@freyao1777]

May I ask if different publication should be separated into different piece of evidence or put them all together as one piece of evidence? The 10 pieces of evidence does not include the CV, personal statement I suppose?

[@isaacafrica]

It should be different publications for different pieces of evidence.

[@morounfayotolu7630]

Hi Isaac, please I want to be clarified, when you say 10 pieces of evidence, does that mean that 10 of my portfolio like 10 of the projects/work I have done? Also, must I be internationally recognized/awarded to be eligible? Thank you for the good work

[@isaacafrica]

Yes, you need different pieces of evidence that cut across the impact and results of your work

[@olawumiolorunkoya]

Please do you think I qualify as an "IT Support Technician" which is the area I've been working in for more than 4 years now.

[@TheDanielakintola]

Must my recommendation letter be written by an expert in my fied based in the U.K or could be based in my country of origin ?

[@isaacafrica]

Sure Danny, the person could be based in your country of origin as well.

[@temitopeosafile6984]

Hello isaac, all of my experiences have been in the bank/ financial services website building, applications and all that. How do i prove this? seeing that it is the bank's property and cannot necessarily be shared publicly. How do i prove that i worked/built the services?

[@isaacafrica]

If you're a skilled software developer with a proven track record of creating successful banking products, you have an excellent opportunity. If you're a business professional, gaining experience at a product-focused startup is beneficial. You can also schedule a session with me through this link: selar.co/1d6v

[@temitopeosafile6984]

Thanks a lot Isaac. Yes I am a software developer, so how do I go about proving this? The only thing the banks can give me is reference letter stating that I built those products. How do I go about this please?

[@tech-preneurshipwithjeff5745]

hi, please how can i handle mentorship or volunteer work done? I only have paid trainings that i have conducted. the free trainings are a few.

[@isaacafrica]

Lovely. When compiling your pieces of evidence, simply have your strong mentorship/training/speaking evidences under the proof of speaking at high-profile digital technology sector events, or specialist events for your particular field in the digital technology sector, as evidenced by reference letter(s) from leading industry expert(s) describing your work, or as evidenced by news clippings or similar evidence (including event size/attendance estimates where possible).

[@abdelmalekhamza9658]

Thanks for your video, please could you explain us how many evidencees need to show them?

[@isaacafrica]

10 pieces of evidence

[@abdelmalekhamza9658]

10x 3 pages for each evidence= 30 pages or 10 evidences =10 pages?

[@DeDataDude]

Very helpful. What's your advise for an Imternational Student in UK, that want to apply for the such visa?

[@isaacafrica]

Thanks Raji. As of today, only InternationalMasters students are qualified to switch and apply for the Global Talent visa. And all you've got to do it follow process.

[@DeDataDude]

[@akogunolasoji7022]

Hi Isaac, can one use any of the 3 recommendations as part of evidence?

[@akogunolasoji7022]

to support any of the 10 evidence ?

[@isaacafrica]

Hi Akogun. No, you can't use any of the 3 recommendations as part of the evidence. The evidence has to be independently prepared and filled with solid proof. All the best!

[@akogunolasoji7022]

[@muogloria1381]

Please is telecommunications companies majorly providing Internet services part of the product led digital technology. I'm applying as a solution sales expert

[@isaacafrica]

As a Sales Expert, you can apply. However, being a Sales being a business skill and not a technical skill, you would need some experience with a product-led tech company to quality. You could strategically pivot to working for a product-led startup for a year, and then turn in your application afterward. That way, you'd stand a greater chance. All the best, Gloria!

[@alishaytokeer9775]

please also about fashion designers

[@JoshSingle]

A lil bit of clarification pls, What exactly is product-lead company? And as a freelancer, would you qualify for the endorsement ?

[@isaacafrica]

Hi Josh. A product-led company is any tech business that provides a proprietary digital technical service/product/platform/hardware as their primary revenue source. Freelancing or consulting doesn't qualify. Only full-time work does.

[@JoshSingle]

@@isaacafrica alright, thanks

[@nineteen5899]

I have 10-15 evidences. DO you recommend me to take screenshots of each evidence and put it in a word document. IN this way I can have 5 pieces of evidence in one document. Is it worth it?

[@isaacafrica]

Absolutely you can, and it's worth it. As long as the ones you're putting together are in sync, and you can supply enough for all criteria. All the best!

[@luchie28]

Hello, I am a new subscriber, my husband wants to apply for the global talent visa he is a fashion designer. We will really love it if you can tell more about it

As a cybersecurity analyst, I get confused about evidence to include.. any heads up?

[@isaacafrica]

I sincerely understand. I felt the same way as well, but it's actually quite easy than it seems. Simply gather evidence that covers the most significant accomplishments and impacftul results of your career so far, and align them to Tech Nation criteria here technation.io/visa-tech-nation-visa-guide/#examples-of-evidence. Create corresponding folders and files on your system, and take your time to begin dropping the evidences one after the other until you have enough that covers the stated requirements. It'll require some dedication but very possible. All the best bro!

[@isaacafrica]

Well done, Onoh! Two years of experience with a Product-Led Tech Startup in Nigeria as a UI/UX is a huge plus, as long as comes with a strong impact. You'd need an additional one year of experience to add to that for Exceptional Promise or 3 more years of experience for Exceptional Talent. All the best!
