When it comes to job hunt, i feel so bad.
Specially when i apply through angels.co

Like wait a second before you reject my CV or my application just talk to me.

Take a look on my projects, my will to do, my interest.

Damn i feel so desperate sometimes i feel like they are not real job vacancies just someone messing around.

    I feel your bro.

    The Hiring People Industrial Complex is brutal.

    Everything is opaque, decisions seem random, brutal stuff.

    Hang in there man.

    @N00bPancakes like it's more a need. Other than a simple request.
    I should never give up

    @Mb3leb If you are looking at angel.co many of the companies there are American startups, so it helps to put your Visa status or work authorization on your resume. I had to do that and got a noticeable change in my response rates. This was 3 years ago, not sure if much has changed since then.

    They're not likely to hire people for whom they have to submit visa paperwork. If you need that, then I suggest you look at bigger firms like Cisco, VMWare, etc.

    And condolences if you are in mourning right now.

    @Mb3leb Did you do college or masters in US? If not it will be very tough, but here are some companies I remember which filled many H1B visa requests:

    SAP,
    Cisco,
    VMWare,
    Juniper Networks,
    F5,
    Palo Alto Networks,
    HP,
    IBM,
    MS,FB,apple,Google also but those are well known

    Europe is probably an easier jump. there's a lot more competition for h1b jobs.

    He's from lebanon. He'll have to compete with a flood from India and China.

    If he gets hired by a german company, f/e, getting a visa is much easier and not tidally locked to the application window for a given year. They also don't even have skilled labor standards for IT jobs. That is objectively easier and statistically more likely to succeed.

    I don't think it's a good comparison. You're in a country with a pipeline that outperforms its application rate to the US annually by 7% in terms of awards. Everyone else fights for the scraps in that process, even china is a distant second.

    @Mb3leb I'm sure you've thought a lot but another option is Dubai/Saudi/other gulf countries. The pay tier is like Saudi first, then Dubai, then it goes down from there and I think Kuwait is lowest pay of the gulf countries. But again could be outdated info these days.

    I have a cousin who worked in Saudi for like 8 years and then that experience helped him transfer to the US and he made a lot of money in that time too. The Gulf states have good relations with the US so the jump is easier from there and you'll make very good money.

    @justamuslimguy yea sure, but i want to gain european experience instead of gulf.
    I have a plenty ways to earn money but have a decent life is only by having a sponsor
