Answer 2

I created a topic, I will be the first to write the answer:
- In principle, I would like to move
- Development of a backend in PHP and everything related.
- 7 years
- I live and work in Moldova. I'm thinking of moving to Germany.
- The plan is this: find job opportunities remotely, then go through interviews in person, then rent a house, move. Germany has a Blue Card program and it simplifies the process for the employer and the foreign worker.
I am planning to move with my wife. We don't have children yet.
- I work in Moldova for a local company. We are a small team developing a product for a foreign company.
- 3000 USD per month.
- There are many reasons, but they can be summed up and highlight the main thing:
A) Prospects for professional growth. The most important thing that I would like to get is work experience in a developed company.
In addition, Moldova is a specific backwater, almost nothing happens in the IT sector here. In Germany, various IT conferences, startup incubators, and so on are often held. All this can be used for professional growth.
B) Social security, good medicine. In Moldova, neither one nor the other is observed. In case of something serious, to put it mildly, f**... spin as you like =) The state functions here very weakly.
- I'll add one more thing: I have a higher education in Computer Science, which, in theory, can make it easier to get a job in Germany.

Answer 3

I moved 6 years ago from Russia to Spain. I didn’t think it through, I relied on fate when I was traveling I thought that in Spain you could speak English, but already on the plane I realized that this was not the case, the Spaniards only speak Spanish. But I learned the language quickly, although it was not particularly useful to me, since I got a job thanks to my knowledge of the Russian language. I work as a manager at Rentabilisense, my direct job is to support this site: www.promokod.ru/.
