How hard is it to find a job as a software engineer in Europe ?

PS: i am middle eastern

Curious to know. But I am from the U.S

Engineers of middle and senior levels are always in demand. Juniors and not experienced can have a hard time finding a job though.

Get really good at COBOL or pascal and you'll be in demand by swiss banks and insurances. You know you have to be specialized in one field where there is very few competition.

@AlexDeLarge well calm down and am just asking for tips no need to push me like this, relax bro

Depends on the country really. In Belgium, all I've seen so far is shit. In the Netherlands however, I've heard from the peeps in the meetup in The Hague quite a few places that I'd love to work at!

In Germany my first job hunt right after finishing my CS degree was insanely hard. Multiple months of applications all over the Republic.

The next one was a piece of cake. 3 applications went out. I had a good offer before the second company could schedule an interview.

@risson thanks for this fruitful and helpful comment.

You can throw your resume on the ground and watch recruiters fight for it in a pit assuming you have 1+ year of experience.
