long story short, i'm graduating college in May (only one more semester, yay!
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)
![Rolling Eyes :roll:](./images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)
i tried looking into inheriting citizenship from my great-grandfather on my dad's side of the family who's from a European country, so that I could acquire dual citizenship with the EU (which would help with the job process), but in a nutshell i wouldn't even be able to start that process until 2018 because my city's consulate is kinda the worst about this stuff.
so now, i've been trying to figure out what the best way would be for me to get back there as an American citizen (and mind you, as one who's nowhere near wealthy enough to acquire a Tier 1 entrepreneurial visa that's only good for folks who have quite a lot of dollars to spend on a startup) -- and considering immigration seems to be getting stricter over there for non-EU citizens, and since most employers over there prioritize British and EU citizens in the job hiring process (due to the way visas and sponsorship and such are set up), my chances of getting over there via any other route besides grad school are looking slimmer and slimmer.

so, does anyone have any recommendations of how to navigate job searching abroad/internship opportunities/programs in the UK/helpful resources and blogs about this stuff/techniques on hiding in a British friend's suitcase/literally any piece of advice on how to handle this as an American?
tl;dr - i'm a hopeless yank trying to find my way back across the pond without going the grad school route? help, please?? any advice is appreciated!
