Apprenticeship for an EU citizen

Hi!
Firstly, I want to apologise for being an intrusive EU citizen that is trying to steal your apprenticeships. :tongue:

I'm kidding, of course.
I am currently living in Romania (not a gipsy, only 3% of Romanians are gipsies). I have A-levels equivalent (European Baccalaureate) and my goal is to get an apprenticeship somewhere in London.
My question is: do you know any real cases of people who weren't UK residents at the moment of the application and got an apprenticeship ?
Because I do have work experience, I do meet most of the requirments, I am fluent in both speaking and writing in English language, but I don't know if it is really possible for an employer to make this further complication of bringing a romanian in the UK, when he can easily chose from thousands of UK residents applicants that just as well meet the requirements.
Thanks, have a nice day.

Please, can someone tell me if it is possible at least? Because I am really in a bad situation and I need to know if I should continue to pursue this apprenticeship finding or not.
Do you know any non-uk residents that got an apprenticeship in UK ? I mean I know it's hard to find and so on, but it is do-able at least ?

It's absolutely possible. If you're from the EU then you have the rights to work in England, and the employer shouldn't have any problems with taking you on. Good luck.
