Hi Ghiyath, Your experience sounds great! One thing you could consider is including details in your CV about any international projects for global brands where you have collaborated with teams in the UK. For example "Worked with the UK-based team on X project or campaign for X brand." Specificity is always great to help bring to life your experience for the recruiter viewing your CV. Another approach to consider could be finding structured volunteering opportunities, where you can build your experience working in the UK in a formal setting. For example, Breaking Barriers is an example of a charity where there are volunteering opportunities. I hope this is helpful, and good luck in securing your desired role soon!
