Either I am not reading it properly, or you probably missed a word or two. But I wanted to confirm the gist of what you are saying here- it's that the vicious cycle of being left alone (after being laid off etc.) is one of the primary reasons why some competent engineers stay unemployed.
- glimcat 15y agoStatistically, competent engineers have very little trouble finding a position compared to the general population. Finding an ideal position is harder, but I don't doubt that you can find something to solve your visa issue.
- kubrickslair 15y agoA special thank you for your advice. Also it was very interesting to see the wide range of comments from every one else. Thanks for that as well.
