There have been changes to the Global Talent Academic and Research Appointments endorsement route. Before starting to draft and submit a Global Talent internal application form, HR teams should download and use the Global Talent eligibility checker to assess whether the requirements have been met for either the Academic and Research Appointments, or Endorsed Funder, endorsement route. If the eligibility checker indicates that the requirements have not been met you will need to consider other visa routes instead.
