Hey. You cannot convert a visa, you have to get a new visa with a different category. For that get an offer from a sponsorship company.

Hello, Orchard House from the UK. With this type of visa, your employer can apply for a Visa status change without you leaving the country. In principle per rules, anyone on a tourist or visit visa cannot take up employment. You have to get a new visa with a different category without leaving country. That said, if it is a visit visa issued by various country immigration, there are options to convert it into an Employment Visa.
