The endorsement stage is not about collecting documents. It's about building a case.

A strong Global Talent Visa application requires strategic positioning, careful selection of evidence, and a file that speaks directly to the endorsement criteria. Most applications that fall short at this stage do so not because the profile is weak, but because the file does not fully reflect what the profile contains.

What makes this different

The Global Talent Visa is an area I genuinely enjoy working in. It sits at the intersection of career strategy, sector expertise, and the careful translation of a professional's work into a coherent, evidence-backed case, which is exactly the kind of work I find most meaningful.

The endorsement process has two layers. The first is procedural: the right forms, the right documents, the right format. The second is strategic: which evidence to select, how to frame it, what the personal statement needs to do, and how the recommendation letters must be constructed to speak to the criteria that actually matter. I work on both layers.

My background is in HR strategy and talent management, with years spent working directly with professionals in Digital Technology, Architecture, and Academia. I understand how these industries function in the UK, their progression logic, what kinds of achievements carry genuine weight, and how endorsement bodies read a profile.


Every document I work on is positioned with purpose and built to align fully with the formal endorsement requirements. That combination of career strategy and deep sector knowledge is what I bring to this work.


IMPORTANT: My work covers Stage 1 endorsement preparation only: strategic positioning, career narrative, and document preparation. I do not provide regulated immigration advice and I do not submit visa applications.

How the process works

Every engagement begins with the GTV Eligibility Review. This is the foundation.

Before any document is written or any package begins, we need to know where your profile stands against the endorsement criteria, clearly and in detail.


If you are ready, we move forward. If preparation is needed first, we map exactly what that looks like. Either way, you leave with a clear picture and a clear next step.

The fee for the Eligibility Review is fully deductible from any full support package you proceed with.

Who is behind this work

Certified Career Coach · Job Search Strategist · Global Talent Endorsement Consultant

Elif Tunay

19 years of career experience + 13 as an HR Business Partner inside global organisations, 6 in career consultancy working directly with international professionals in the UK.


My HR background spans Digital Technology, Architecture, Banking and Finance, and Engineering, sectors where I worked alongside leadership teams, shaped talent strategy, and understood from the inside how organisations evaluate careers and potential. That knowledge is directly relevant to GTV endorsement work: I understand what genuine talent looks like within these industries, and how endorsement bodies assess it.


For the past six years in consultancy, I have worked one-to-one with professionals across all three GTV sectors: Digital Technology, Architecture, and Academia. Career positioning, endorsement narratives, and evidence strategy are not new territory for me. Every file I work on is built to reflect the full weight of what the applicant has built, and to align fully with the formal endorsement requirements.


I do not provide regulated immigration advice. I work on the strategic and narrative layer, which is where most applications succeed or fail.
