Interesting that you feel people in non-tech careers don't have goals... Every second person in India is in tech so it's not really special here at this point and people who are specializing in other fields tend to go farther here haha.

Also, the Global Talent Visa is actually way more prestigious & difficult to get than a work sponsorship... It's a badge of honor on its own, and the visa regulations allow you to do far more than a an individual on a sponsorship, which is why I'm working hard towards building a portfolio towards that. The new work visa regulations allow you to even pay for your own sponsorship license at this point, so the only difficult part is finding a registered sponsor to agree to wait for you to relocate. And the reason the UK also wants non-tech applicants here is to help the tech businesses grow, which they can't without the right teams for business strategy and development. It's all interdependent - I've seen multiple tech companies fail without the right expansion strategies
