Hi, I appreciate the thought behind this extension but honestly it doesn't work at all, it shows 'UK Sponsor Status' even on jobs in Africa, US or anywhere in the world which has nothing to do with UK. Even with the UK companies, I think it works by only showing you listing that doesn't mention anything of visa sponsorship in their job description but that doesn't mean they have a license, I tried this extension with at least hundreds of companies by opening the actual list of sponsors by UK gov on the right tab and the sponsor status this extension is claiming on the left side and manually tallied the companies, there was no match except one or two amongst hundreds of them. Apologies for not a positive review, I just wanted to give an honest feedback. Hope it improves with time. :)
