US ex pat (during Biden's term) in the EU, also engineer

There's lots of jobs in English in lots of countries. A larger company has a much better chance of bringing you over. I would try applying for stuff as you see fit and go in with an open mind. It's been tough but very very rewarding for us so far.

The one thing I have gotten used to is the โ€œWe regret to inform youโ€ฆโ€ email so far. ๐Ÿ˜…

When Iโ€™m not burning from both ends, outside of hobbies, has specifically been international job hunting.

I can be thankful that my current career has stability and is semi-immune to the nonsense due to legally binding contracts.
