Unfortunately everything you stated is not true.
There are no incredibly stupid amount of high paying jobs still available. Not now not before. The biggest companies are downsizing, on hiring freeze and restructuring.

Those mostly laid off are residents. You hear of H1B often because they are the ones very active on LinkedIn and rigorously looking for another jobs. They have a limited time to get a new job. Residents are not bothered about that.

Residents are not spoilt for jobs at this time. Some of those laid off were called back but on different terms. Guess what, low ball. Recruiters agree that there're not many opportunities as before. I know many people who have spent a century of their lives in tech and struggling to get a job now, I'm in the same forum with many of them. For example Adam Davis keeps a blog on his life and have been a great front end programmer for over 20 years. Apart from my personal experiences the job market charts are not looking good.

Omho so the tech industry has finally collapsed. What do you think is the next best thing to get into.

Hello friends, a I am a software engineer working in a fintech company in Nigeria. From the state of things I have resolved to leave Nigeria but getting a tech job visa sponsorship seems to be a herculean task due to individual country immigration laws and intense competition from other software engineers from various underdeveloped countries. Now I came across the German work Visa but I have several questions which I need clarity on. In short I need guidance from people who have undergone the process.

Question 1: I heard you need a minimum of 5 working years of experience. Can freelancing in tech also count?
Question 2: I heard you need proof of fund in a blocked account. How is that done and how easily can I retrieve my money if the process doesn't go through.
Question 3: how long does getting an appointment take(I heard to get a student visa appointment takes 14 months
Question 4: How easy is it to get a job in Germany within the six months. Can I also apply to jobs vacancies written in German while I indicate I am currently learning GERMAN.

Please contribute or tell some one who can to help

True there's competition, it's either you face it or look for other options. There are lots of problems that still need solutions so there's need for brilliant minds.

One thing that's very important is networking. If a manager wants you, he'll bring you on board no matter the odds. You either need to impress him or he has interest in you. The truth is work visas are not easy in western world. Look at your options critically and most importantly, don't give up on your dreams.

Remember: If you continue to wait for the right time you'll waist your entire life and nothing will happen.

I won't discourage anyone from going into tech. Most professions don't earn half of what tech pros earn and still live a very good life. Many graduates earn 50/60k per year on other professions.

There are jobs and tech is still among the highest paying jobs but there's a game the big guys are trying to play. It's easier as an entry level to accept any amount but when you're mid-level or pro, you're choosy. For example if you were making 300k, you will easily find jobs but getting that pay or higher is the issue. The big companies spoilt the market and they're trying to do a cleanup. A friend told me that when he stated his pay to the hiring manager, he was told that even the CEO don't earn that. The major thing is to have reasonable expectations, you'll still be better than millions of others but you may have debt hanging on your neck.

Lol. You wan become farmer?
Will that be able to fund your lifestyle?

Savagethe21st:
yea please do you know about the blocked account and how can I put money there. I am really confused

If you ever need to open a blocked account (Sperrkonto) for Germany, its a simple and uncomplicated process, you may use www.fintiba.com or better still go to Goethe Institut (German Cultural Centre), Lagos .
At Goethe you will get Info on how to open the account with alternative banks like Sparkasse or Deutsche Bank. You will also get comprehensive Information on Job oppörtunities in Germany.
