    I work for Watson Wyatt ([url]www.watsonwyatt.com[/url]) and they would definitely be interested in someone with your background- having already passed two exams. They also sponsor work visas- one of my coworkers is from Jamaica. If you want more information on our locations and available positions- contact me or look around the careers link on our website.

    Good Luck!

    I don't know if I contacted you on another thread. I live in the Philly area. I have no exams passed but I have the extreme desire to make this career change. I have a reference over at one company that claims I don't need any parts passed and I applied for Towers and WW(but the jobs may have been filled). Anyway, maybe we could talk some time. Have a Happy New Year.
