Ben had worked in Birmingham for over than a year and three months but unfortunately, the company suddenly made an announcement and said everyone are dismissed and terminate the contract. Then i had no choice but to looking for job elsewhere. So what should you do if you don't want to be overly worried about being made redundant? Here's the few tips is really useful to you 1. Prepare emergency funds to make sure that you can survive at least six months until you get another job 2. Complete and have your CV ready before redundant consultancy meeting begins 3. Notify the agency as soon as possible before the end of the date 4. Get a job that companies have potential growth and it's unlikely to be made redundant 5. Start saving emergency funds, saving for future and invest if you are already begin a new job. You will find it difficult to predict if there's another second redundancy to be made in the future. Hope this tips will minimise the possibility of worries about the redundancy.

I've been living in Birmingham for nearly one and a half year already, everything i saw and who i met is absolutely meaningful. All these days, i worked with British and expats for four and a half day. I believed that i can fulfill my worklife balance despite the cost of living in the UK remain high. Until now, i literally spent more than a month revising life in the UK test questions and thought it would be more difficult to complete this challenge but it turns out it is not that difficult to pass life in the UK test before the official test begin. Although life in the UK test study material needs to be fully read, it is still need to do Life in the UK test online web for a period of time. When i believed that i am confident enough to book the official Life in the UK test, i then chosen for today on 8th July. When i entered in the test centre, they're expected every candidates to switch off the mobile devices and place all the personal belongings into the locker before the security checks proceed. You need to confirm the name, date of birth and the reason why you take life in the UK test. I then answered them settlement first in front of the official camera. After gone through the confirmation check with my own passport, staff member told me to enter the examination room, each candidates have individual computer to complete life in the UK test questions. You need to answer at least 18 out of 24 questions correct to pass this test before applying Indefinite leave to remain. I literally spent the whole 45 minutes remained on the computer because i marked up some difficult questions and answered the most memorable and the most easiest questions. When i completed all 24 answers, i did not immediately end the test because if i did, you will not have chance to correct the answer if i realised the answer is wrong or not. So therefore, i arranged to completed the whole questions in the first 10 minutes, and then i go through the difficult question over again in the remaining 35 minutes. After confuse around, i thought this test is not satisfied by myself. But eventually, my first attempted to attend life in the UK test is already passed.

Hello, there. It's been while i haven't make Ben's adventure Blogger myself since i was busy in working in Birmingham. After gone through one year in Birmingham, everything i saw, i learnt and i discovered was not just amazing, this living environment really making me more cleverer. Such as knowing more life in the UK, practising English to be more proficiently and polishing my mathematics as well. You know why i can always keep training my maths once i settled down in my new UK home? Because taxation system in UK really can train my brain and can be control my spending habits. Overall, i felt satisfied my current working condition since i knew UK had implement 4 days working week and the salaries are much higher than i work in my previous place HK although there are income tax to be paid. Before i pay tax, i am entitled to enjoy personal tax allowance since the date i start work in the first UK jobs. My current UK jobs are 4.5 days per week which i am entitled to enjoy 2.5 days off. The best thing i lived in UK is work life balance could really improve my mental health. Have enough rest to do other things i like. In the following weeks later, i'll move to another apartment and continue to revise Life in the UK test question and prepare to book Life in the UK test. I think it is worthy to take the test to make me understand more about the UK history, holidays, celebrities, rule of law and any important things i learnt. Such as Hunter Gatherers were moved in Britain 6000 years ago. After roman remained Britain for 400 years, the anglo saxons invaded britain or more i learn from middle age of Britain or later Britain as well. Aside of that, i need to prove my acknowledge of English language via taking the B1 IELTS test for UKVI to ensure i can read and speak English that most British citizens should do.

During the first year living in Birmingham, when i initially moved in Birmingham, i thought there aren't plenty enough job opportunities but once i transform my old CV into British CV standard, there are more than 10 UK companies are asking me to submit CV to begin work immediately, at first, the probation period of the contract are designed to be 3 months and after 3 months, they'll offered me a permanent contract, i nearly reached 4 months working in Birmingham via recruitment agency. So in the first six months, i visited Bullring city Centre, Public Library which is one of the biggest library in Europe and also canal as well. To comparing my previous job in HK, UK colleagues are mostly friendly working environment than you work in HK and the pay rate is absolutely great. One of the good news is during the first six months upon arrival, my visa literally fulfilled not to leaving UK for more than 180 days. That means i am currently counting for 2nd year in the UK. In order to ensure that i could successfully applied indefinite leave to remain, it is the best time revising Life in the UK test as early as possible to make sure i remembered all citizenship test question.

Hello, there, it's been four months living in Birmingham and saw one of the stadium had built nearby my living place. there's been commonwealth games had launched literally more than 8 days and i guess the closing ceremony will be held tomorrow. At least event atmosphere are quite exciting and not too quiet enough. I thought somehow i want to entered in that place but the price ticket cost £15 each person. And when i was caught Covid few days ago, i almost spending few days sleeping on the bed and were unable to find out what's exciting that i can find on commonwealth games. Do feel sorry about that inconvenience caused.

Two days ago, European heatwave had occurred many people's life, Birmingham city had literally reached 40 degrees on Monday and Tuesday this year. This topic is truly a serious topic about of what i can do to slow down climate change. Although i tried share my own thoughts, everyone may demand more air conditioning during the heatwave but install air conditioner may speed up Greenhouse gases to be honest. In some countries, there's still deforestation activities still exist and fossil fuels continued to burn in this planet. And i came up another question that is, when students needs to do homework, is it nessesary to print more paperwork or examination paper but doing assessment by using technologies instead? I believed that school teachers and headmasters never have thought anything about this but if they are willing to used technologies to do homework, exam to replace using paper. That would be slowing down climate change. I don't agree to install air conditioner because it could be increasing the chance to have more heatwave and air conditioner also have greenhouse gases as well. After encountered such extreme weather like this after i moved in. I don't think i want to go to Dubai afterwards.

Well, Let Ben's adventure Blogger taking you to watch Street Performance show in Bullring city centre. They're just randomly dance whatever they want to joke around, making fun of this dance show and entertain everyone who are walking around there. I just love that place where it is quite popular to walk and having more people enjoy watching street performance. Birmingham city centre is not really boring.

Hello there, It's been two months Ben's adventure Blogger in Birmingham UK. Now it's about time to share how much do i expected to pay every single month in UK. Including utility bills and the monthly use for transport, council tax, TV license, Food or Broadband internet. However, Broadband internet is much more costly than using giffgaff plan. Giffgaff plan provide £20 each 100GB internet surfing. It literally can sustain for a whole month by uploading videos, downloading games and software. The Giffgaff data plan's speed is not slow but often slow down sometimes during the weekend. After explaining the monthly expenses, when talking about the income, It depends on your qualification or what education level you have before. If you don't have all that above, you can have work in Pick and Packer or Warehouse Operative to earn some basic income. To cover monthly expenses with tenancy price in UK must require minimum 2 members with both friends and family to survive. If you have either Brothers and sisters who are currently on working ages, 3 persons will be much more easier to live in UK. More is better.

Hello, there. I heard many youtubers said there's four working day system is currently on six months trial in UK and see if this is really improve employees working efficiency. But it turns out it really fulfill employees health and improve mental health also. You could have enough time to sleep, accompanied with friends or family, having more time doing outgoing activities as well. This is where you never find it in Hong Kong as well since i was working more than 6 days with loads of overtiming work. I always never agreed to work on seven days but those supervisors don't even care in Hong Kong which is nearly made my mental health nearly on danger or nearly affected the relationship with friends or family as well. Glad to know i am here in UK and looking for working opportunities and feel what is friendly working environment. In my perosnal view, i absolutely agree to implement four days working system to ensure everyone would improve mental health, efficiency and also save transportation fare as well.

Hello, there. As a Hong Konger living in Birmingham for literally a whole month and now i'm currently to looking for a new job. I know things wouldn't be easier but there are some ideas to be able to share with you. It's about using the internet to apply the new job in Birmingham. As far as i know, Birmingham city is such a bigger city compared to Hong Kong. Knowing where to work in a location and where i live is really important because it depends on if transportation link is really convenient or not convenient to go to work. After applying for my first job, the company had told me to use companies website to complete the whole step before start work. As long as i need to fill in general information, showing the right of work in UK proof and sign the contract. But considered the working location is in Lichfield in Peterbrough is not close to Birmingham and the transportation link isn't fit enough to go there. I decided to apply the second new job in UK. And i currently work hard to find the place it is probrably located between B1 to B5 area based on Wikipedia. And i definitely need to spend more time understand Birmingham area that where i should go. There's job website for any Hong Konger to find UK jobs Indeed Totaljobs CVlibrary Talent.com In the coming next video. Ben's adventure Blogger will share something about Hong Kong Youtubers were joint the event on a boat.

Hello, there. Ben's adventure Blogger haven't meet any of you for a while since i were having a rough journey when i approach here. As you can see, when i first approached to UK in advance. There's more problem than i thought need to be solve urgently, such as like purchase TV license, setting up council tax and also setting up the utility bill payment. And once i arrived in Birmingham, there's so many undiscovered place that i need to explore before i started looking for a new job for me to start work to finish basic life needs. Like as i said, UK basic prices are quite expensive and were struggled to afford because of global inflation reason that made it happened. But once i heard one of the Hong Kong driver who've been settle in UK and he said willing to work hard to ensure your life will be stable. What's worrying about the most was about the safety issue when walking on the street.

Hello there, it's been a while that i haven't make Ben's adventure Blogger video since i were busy in handling tenancy payment while i were in a rough trip to UK since agency weren't working as professional as i think.

Have you guys ever played this game before like some Hong Kongers desgined such outstanding game and it's easily killing your brain when you reached insanely difficult game that Google search didn't fully giving you an answer. You know why i only got 352 out of 1000 score? The question wasn't just only asking you some locations only, they also asking you some historical question as well and some similar Cantonese word that some expats may not be understand although i was born Cantonese as well. When you realised that you have used google search in different question, that is really wasting my valuable time. And you will miss out other valuable time doing other things when you concentrate too much playing this game. Even a geography teacher cannot fully completed such competitive game and also cannot fully reached full points. Ben's adventure Blogger had been encounter such terrible games ever.

Well, most Ben's adventure Blogger's video are normally vlogging at home but this time i go out and made railway trip video. This railway trip is not just a trip only. I also did some test on how long does it take to Arrive in Western New Territories from East New Territories as well.

Once we all know other singer Tokyo Square had composed classic song into english version but no one had ever yet made Night Autumn song but i create one of my lyrics. However, it's been quite a long time i haven't singing karaoke due to COVID-19 but i only singing at home and it's quite difficult to compose english lyrics that mix rhythm of this song as i found my sentence maybe didn't fit for that song.

A week ago, when i checked back on my instagram account. i noticed that some hacker had login my personal instagram account it is called hanksben twice and they deleted my current account without my authorize. I didn't authorise some strangers using my account and do some fraud activities. After incident happened to me, i tried to compose email to instagram but they had shown no intention by solving this case which is making me disappointed and irritating. And i got evidence of who hacked my account were mostly from Russian or Ukrainian. Under the circumstances, i did the following measurements. Open the Vero account and upload personal life and travel photo in Vero social media network in case of if hacker deleted my new backup account again. Once incident happened to me before, i realised that setting strong password is absolutely important, no matter how much you don't like difficult password. Set difficult password is necessary and important. 1) Never use your telephone number and include with only one letter 2) Never use date of birth and include with only simple letter 3) Avoid use familiar vocabulary word and some numeric that will draw hackers attention. 4) Set up two verification code to avoid hackers granted access to login to your account 5) Use other social media platform if that activity happened on you again, Like create MeWe account, Rumble channel, Parler account and also Vero account where it never have any data's manipulation.

One of my uncle gerald's beloved song This love that sang by Maroon 5 had sang by her invitation. So therefore, i sang the part 2 too.

Since i ordered the new IPhone 13 Pro at Apple website and received the Christmas gift at Apple store in Festive Plaza at Kowloon Tong, so therefore, i decided to test it out of how's camera's quality actually going. By the way, IPhone 13 camera's quality are far better than my current phone it is called Samsung Galaxy 13 where it only allowed the brightness picture than the darkness place. IPhone 13 Pro has slow motion like film director and also have cinema mode. That's truly outstanding for me to prepare travelling video or going to meet someone who wished to talking with me. And one more good thing about the IPhone 13 Pro was it has Imovie editor where my current Windows and Android doesn't have once i discovered the best thing in my campus where i used to studied Jewellery Design before. Hong Kong Design & Institution had purchase IApple computer inside the library. So once i did the photo quality test between Samsung Galaxy C9 and IPhone 13 Pro. I decided to give a good vote on this phone and will be use to make videos in UK.

Since everyone knows COVID-19 had seriously affected our life matters, including global transportation are also limited as well. And what's worrying the most was about Omicorn variant virus had quickly spreading all over the world where current vaccines protection had dropped a little bit below. Most UK citizens were having Vaxzevria vaccines but in my workplace. I only have two vaccines can be chosed to vaccinated. To proven it's protection and efficiency, Ben prefer Pfizer/BioNtech Vaccines where it gave more than 90 percent protection than Vaxzevria does. Since i took my 1st dose of vaccination, i thought i could end dying in hospital because of Myocarditis but i survived my first round. just like playing video games where i played 2 rounds match against side effects. And after took my second dose of BioNtech vaccines, i listened to some experts saying taking a break for few days until those side effects gone. So i beliebed that i won against side effects. BTW, i just only want to granted my travel rights by showing fully vaccinated certificate to the airport kiosk. So far, i didn't plan to accept booster vaccines once i knew the risk of side effects.

Do you know how i am interested in knowing British and Vietnamese culture? Well, let's begin to say since 2018. I went to southern vietnam Ho Chi Minh city where many famous vietnamese singer lived there. It's the singer motivated me to learn some of the vietnamese word until now in 2021 that i'm still remembered part of the basic words. But about liking British culture, since i was in campus, i begun talking with native English speakers around the world. I find out they're not just talkative or communicative, they're also relax and enjoying being joke together. I also kept on joining Chatteris English Programme like Day Camp, Pantomime, Spring Ball and also campus activities as well. That's why i love travelling or engage making some new friends.

It's been a while i haven't upload the blog video until now, i found one of the Vietnamese singer he is called Quang Le. His songs performance are just the same as Chau Khai Phong where he perform such outstanding rhythm as well. So therefore, i sang it afterwords.

I recently got invited by Christine and asked me to sing more than words this song but i am not familiar of this song. i need to repeat hearing the lyrics more than 5 times until i remembered the lyrics and music rhythm as well.
