Borders Are Speed Bumps, Not Stop Signs
The UK Job Institute helps international students turn rejection into results and secure visa-sponsored jobs in the UK.
We provide structured career training, real mentorship, and proven strategies built by international students, for international students.
About Farhoon Asim
I arrived in the UK in 2016 with ambition but no plan. After facing more than 300 job rejections, I finally landed my first UK offer at KPMG. Later, I joined Raindrop as Growth Lead, helping scale revenue from £6 million to £20 million ARR.
In 2023, I co-founded International Hustlers. After parting ways with my co-founder, I took out a £7,000 personal loan and rebuilt everything from scratch. Within 12 months, we generated $1.1 million in revenue, guided more than 150 students into visa-sponsored roles, and reached over 6 million learners on LinkedIn.
In January 2025, I brought everything together under The UK Job Institute — my life’s work.

Why I Share My Playbook
I failed six businesses and lost over £10,000 before finding success. What changed my path were the strangers who helped me along the way.
My mission is to normalize asking for help and to prove that borders are not stop signs — they are simply speed bumps on the road to success.
The UK Job Institute exists to pass forward that help. Every framework, script, and success strategy comes from lived experience — not theory.
