"Almost a year ago I've lost my job due to department's chief mistakes, and still I have no job."
This is what real IT is like outside the bubble areas, no matter how many times a desperate shortage is announced in SV or NYC or where-ever.
- rodgerd 10y agoYes, but "I do not want to relocate due to migration crisis". If made up stories about non-existent terrorist attacks in Sweden deter you from moving to an EU country... well.
- microtherion 10y agoI don't think that's what he meant. Many European countries are becoming more hostile to immigrants (Cf. the nastygrams that the British government currently sends to immigrants from other EU countries), so he is hesitant to become one.

- obstacle1 10y agoIt's way more complex than you're making it out to be. Whether or not one can find a job is hugely dependent on the individual's skillset, and very importantly, social abilities. The latter being a thing that laid-off IT people tend to completely discount, IME.
