Thank you for the comment, could you tell please, what kind of projects do you have in your company? Do they have ruby or rails positions, or frontend-based positions open?

I work at Booking.com. We don't use RoR but yeah, we have plenty of frontend positions open: https://workingatbooking.com https://workingatbooking.com I'm also happy to answer any of your questions, my E-Mail contact is in my profile. But aside from where I work more generally there's lots of companies in more stable countries in Europe (or elsewhere) that would be willing to hire a competent developer of whatever skills you might have. I just wanted to point out to you that you'd have a much easier time if you could get a work visa and work your way towards permanent residence or citizenship than starting out trying to request asylum.

    I wasn't expecting a follow-up question to be a question about the company I was working at in particular. I mainly replied to give some (admittedly amateur) general advice on seeking asylum v.s. pursuing a work visa. Since he did ask what projects we have at the company that I happen to work at I thought it was simpler just to mention where I work. We have a lot of promotion & hiring material online, and it's way easier just to mention where I work and have the OP check that out than for me to write up some some long-winded description of what the company does, all the while trying not to mention what company I'm talking about. It's not like there's that many companies in Amsterdam that run online hotel booking websites. So any interested reader could infer what company I was talking about anyway if I were to describe what sort of projects we work on.

  Booking.com has an unfortunate reputation in the perl community http://blogs.perl.org/users/booking_employee/2014/01/bookingcom---a-toxic-company-for-developers.html http://blogs.perl.org/users/booking_employee/2014/01/booking...
