Career in IT

I have been a programmer for several years. I have a degree in molecular biology.

Answer 1

I won’t say exactly for the visas of Germany and the USA, but in all developed countries + - the same conditions. A diploma is not a critical condition that cannot be bypassed, but if you are riding as a high skilled professional, you will need to prove it. A diploma is an easy way, without it everything is much more difficult, usually it’s 5+ years of relevant experience that can be convincingly demonstrated somehow, and you and the employer will have to work harder to convince the migration service that he can’t manage without you.

Answer 2

I am subscribed to a Russian-speaking programmer who has been living and working in Germany for a long time. Once he posted a vacancy in their company on his telegram and added that having a higher education is mandatory , because without this piece of paper a foreign country will not want to employ you, etc. But a couple of days later he posted this screen:
So you can do without higher, but it will be much more difficult

It's harder without a degree.

Answer 6

Yes, it is required, or 10+ years of proven work experience in the specialty. It is in Russia that you can work as a senior engineer without a paper, and abroad - only if unofficially. No one will give you emigration without this, if you are not going to lay tiles.
