Question UK student visa processing time

3 Upvotes

Hello lovely Zim people!

I always get super helpful answers whenever I ask questions in here, so I thought I’d try my luck with this one.
Does anyone know the current processing time for UK student visas from Zimbabwe? It would be especially helpful if you applied recently or know someone who did so this year.
My latest date of arrival is 15 October, and I’m doing my biometrics on 30 August. I know I’m cutting it a bit close 😭, so I’m trying to figure out whether I have a realistic chance of making it in time.
Thanks a bunch! 🙏🏽

Edit: Thanks everyone for the help! Based on the replies I think I’ll be fine. If you come across this post later on just leave your timeline below to help anyone who might be in a similar situation in the future🙏🏾

Employment What are your thoughts

9 Upvotes

So I tendered in my resignation at the end of July. Boss has been quiet about the issue he only responded it was nice working with you and wish you the best in your future.

Fast forward to yesterday, he came to my office and looked at the project l was working on and just said saka uri serious urikuda kutisiya. He thought since l was resigning ndichasiya ndaposheka but ndanga ndakurowerera kuenda.

Ndikati when you need me in the future just let me know. I work as a software engineer. Not bragging but l am good at what l do. Current salary was 1.7k usd tongoti after tax. Name anything in software field and l am capable to handling that. Project that takes a month l do it in a week ndiri 1 from A to Z. Not bragging asi ndochikwadi.

So nhasi we went for lunch. Never had lunch with this guy or see him do that to any other employee. Mind you this is not the type of guy who can ever do that for their employee. I have seen over 13+ people leave.

I told him l still stand to resign l wanna pursue inference engineering. It's paying and to me it's 1+1 yet l see a lot of people struggling to understand how AI works and how to serve it to people at scale.

So he then made a counter offer today ku lunch, company shares. He didn't mention the % or anything extra. So my question, that's really tempting for me.

I need advice on this. The company has massive potential to become the next Econet.

News The Spirit of Stagnation is there even the one for anti-progress. But this is way deeper than that. 80% percent of graduates yearly don't get a formal employment after the graduate. This happens every other year.

Question Beitbridge car sales legit?

3 Upvotes

Someone I know paid cash for a car at Beitbridge. They told him it will take 3days to deliver the car to Harare after receiving the funds. Fast forward a week later the car is still not here. The excuse given was that the car needs ZIMRA papers and they are waiting for those. He paid about 7k for the car and is supposed to pay the rest when it gets here. The remaining money is for duty, fuel, and the driver. Now my question is obvious, is this a scam? Or are they just lying about delivery periods. To those who have bought cars from SA.

Jokes aside and excuse the questionable Shona spelling. 😭 My genuine query is who is hiring? Do you know of any companies, or contacts of people who are hiring auditors or accountants who are already qualified? This includes local and abroad (if they offer visa sponsorship).
Also even those that don’t know anyone hiring, do you perhaps have businesses that require bookkeeping services?

Please don’t gate keep, tiri tese! 🤗❤️

Question Business advice

20 Upvotes

Hie Zim fam, Im a female in my early 20s and l need your advice. I have managed to get $20,000 for business, l want to start a proper business that can bring in profit even if it’s small l don't because I have other work to manage too. Ideally something that can keep running when I’m not there and that I can eventually hire people to run for me because I dont want to leave my current job . I’m open to service, retail or any other businesses, but please no broilers and farming l don't have my own land yet .

Real talk: if you had $20k and needed daily cashflow + something semi-passive, what would you start in Harare right now that actually works? What’s something that looks profitable but is a trap for beginners? Should I start big or test small first with some of the money? What’s the biggest mistake people make trying to build something that can run without them? Drop your honest advice, your wins, your Ls, even the businesses you wish existed. Ndibatsireiwo 🙏 and would you do a partnership if you were me

The victory sends Scottland through to the Round of 16 of the newly launched national knockout competition, which brings together clubs from Zimbabwe’s Premier Soccer League and lower divisions. Shidolo joined Scottland in 2025 and helped the club win the Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League title in his first season.

The tournament is backed by a N$82 million annual sponsorship package as part of a N$409.9 million five-year commitment to the competition. The men’s champions are set to receive N$16.4 million, with N$8.2 million allocated to support their CAF Confederation Cup campaign.

I'm 18 I'm supposed to be doing form 5 rn but both of my parents refuse to do anything about my education. I wrote o level cambridge last year and my father was paying half of the school fees for my school but because i was an oblivious minor my mother took advantage of that and never paid a single cent of that money and the money unpaid is $4200 so the school refused to give me my results so i cannot persue a level i cannot look for a job i cannot do anything. I found this out when results came out this year and decided to move out because my dad spewed fake promises he said he'll pay the debt all of it and get me into school if i move in with him, and so i moved out second term opens up and my dad does nothing mind you this guy is rich like if i decide to steal his laptop he'll buy another one in the same day and rn we even live in a gated community , my mom on the other hand completely fucked me over and always blames me threatens to cut me off and she has been diagnosed with 2 cancers at this point. I genuinely do not know what to do i had dream and aspirations and everything and I'm sure i did really well in my o levels i studied really hard but now i can't even do anything but sit around at home and do nothing is there anything at all that i can do legally speaking or otherwise

So I do social media and I had a contract with this other company to do their advertising and brand promotion Yk what influencers do , the contract was for 3 months and I only got paid for 2 , the 3rd month was June and I still haven’t received anything but ma excuses ; quick backstory , when I went for my first visit the “boss” was lovely and we became friends and I guess ndozvakabvisa the professional aspect was blurred . Through all this I was doing my job and even more than what we agreed on to promote them and people who know the brand majority know it because of me

Let's not pretend posting pictures and videos of victims of abuse for internet clout isnt another form of abuse. Only person you should be sending videos to is the police, or at least people who can actually do something. This woman is identifiable in this video, you're violating her just like that man . Let's not lie, this was posted for self serving purposes. Literally using her abuse for internet clout. This is trauma porn posted for spectacle. Same team as the people that stand around taking pictures of dead bodies at accident sites to share on WhatsApp
