I will finish my bachelor in business administration soon. But I don't have any documents for England or anything. Could I be able to get a job there? Is people there racist towards foreigners (I'm mexican)? How is people's culture? Would I ever be able to work on my profession anyways?
I'm going there because I'm marrying an english boy. I'm 22 years old, and still will leave debts in my country that I would have to cover... so I was wondering.

You should contact the British Embassy and ask them what to do. I assume that once you marry your boyfriend and prove that the marriage wasn´t for visa purposes only you shouldn´t have any problem.
I wouldn´t say that British people are racist but many of them are upset that they´ve been getting a non-stop influx of immigrants into the country who are receiving more benefits than native-born Britons. There aren´t many Mexicans there and Mexicans are not the problem, mostly Europeans and other countries. You should be able to find a job, but there will probably be a great delay from the approval of your visa to your eligibility to work.
You will undergo a huge culture shock moving from Mexico to England, especially if you´ve never been out of Mexico. English people are not as outgoing and friendly as Mexicans and do not kiss when they greet. Their sense of humor is very sarcastic and most Mexicans are not used to this. If you´re used to American English you´ll have to get used to British English, which is a completely different accent, and even has different spellings and pronunciations for the same words.
It rains most days of the year in England and has moderate temperatures year-round. The cost of living is very expensive.
I could go on and on for hours but I can´t fit everything into this space. Your boyfriend should be able to tell you what to expect.

I guess you will have to find out from the British Embassy in Mexico regarding the visa category under which you can apply. However, since you are getting married to an English boy, you will eventually be able to apply for permanent settlement. To be honest it is hard to find a job. I am an MBA. I have found it really difficult to get a job in London with my masters degree. People are not racist in London at all, they are very friendly. In fact you will find that you will be greeted with smiles by strangers on the street, and they will be much more if you look attractive. However, there are always some rotten bunch. London is multicultural and so it is very relaxed towards foreigners. I have almost found my home here. You will be able to work in your profession but it is going to be a struggle, so be prepared to do anything, even cleaning. I hope that this helps. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further information.
God bless!

Going anywhere without papers is not a particularly good idea. However, if you are marrying an english guy that will give you papers and solve the problem. Without papers you can expect to have plenty of difficulties finding a job and to be ripped off and exploited when you are working. London is also very expensive so if you don't already have accommodation do bear in mind that this will drain your bank account. Finding a job will probably depend on the level of your English.............As for racism? I wouldn't worry about it all! London is SOOOOOOOOO cosmopolitan there are hardly any English people left there at all! In London, everyone's a foreigner!

London is a multi-races city. A job could be according to your skills. You find some people who are racists as found in every country but it's not a big thing. Arabs and Indians live here as their own country (which is) for you to have an idea. One of my best friend is an Indian guy. I'm married with my spanish wife, she's from Oviedo, Asturías.
My father was croatian. I hope you've found the answer to your question.
