How can I work in England this summer


How can I work in England this summer?
I am currently living in Canada and have holidays in July and August. I would like to go to England for both months and work to help fund my holiday. It would need to be a live-in job like a summer camp or hotel work. Is there somewhere that has job postings that will hire international employees? Is there anything else I will need to know about in order to work in England? From the research I've done, I shouldn't need a visa or a travel permit, but if you know different, please let me know.

If you go to England for just a couple of months, you will spend at least one month to search for a job there.Than, you spend a good amount of money on living costs there. You will end up almost even. If you want to make a fast buck-go to Russia, Moscow. This is the third most expensive city in the world, but you work on cash there. This country operates on cash! And another thing: If you are good at something like computers, engineering, playing sports or business administration- they will love you and won't let you go back to your country. So do the research what country will pay you the most in a short period of time. Russians are smart, kind and generous. Trust me, I've been there.

You say that you are living in Canada...but are you Canadian. I ask simply because there are different rules and regulations for different nationalities. If you are not a citizen of the EEA (European Economic Area) you will need a work permit, and to get one of those you will need to have a skill that is in high demand over here, the type of work you are looking for is not classed as being in high demand. However if you are a Canadian citizen then you could always consider coming here under the Youth Mobility Scheme which replaced the Working holiday maker visa in 2008. You can find all the rules etc at this Government Border Agency site... http://www.bia.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk/ http://www.bia.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk/tier5/youthmobilityscheme/
