Hi, automation QA engineer with 8 yrs of experience , want to move aboard specially EU region

Hi all. Wanted to know if ppl here have tips on how to move to EU and what expectations to have. Where and how to apply? What kind of position and salary should one expect? Current CTC - 65lpa (45 base) 8 YOE Currently in non tech middle management role in finance/strategy (post MBA) Thanks

Folks I’m thinking of moving to Europe from India. I’m a software developer with 1.5 YOE. I want to move to Europe to explore different places in Europe and experience life outside India. My main goal is not to save a lot of money (I’ll be okay with saving as much as I save in India). I want to work outside India for a couple of years and then return back to India. What are your suggestions on moving to Europe? Which country is best for software developers in Europe at the moment? What are the companies in Europe that are sponsoring visa? How should I prepare for interviews in Europe. Your suggestions and guidance are much appreciated. YOE - 1.5 TC - 14.5(Base)

I am basically confused, I really want to experience other culture in general; but for me in India I cannot experience or explore anything other than work like 24/7 availability, late night work and the current work requires me to work in US timezone and let us address the elephant in the room taxes in India, now hear me out taxes in EU are high but the benefits are good compared to India like WLB (especially being an SRE/Devops), less stressful work environment. I do not want anyone to mess with me after 6 PM post work. I feel risk >>>>>>> regret I got an admission at a University in EU region but I am seriously contemplating the possibilities ? Please leave your comments, Is anyone on the same boat ?

Does anyone have idea how can i apply to companies in europe. What all job portals are there. Can you get into FAANG level companies in europe from india directly?

Confused because of many issues like anti-immigration rhetoric by Europeans, low pay, high taxes, inflation etc. still it seems better than India at least in terms of pay and work-life balance. Need guidance on this. Also, is German or any other European language a must to learn? Can I still live there with English and basic German/other local language knowledge?

I'm a software professional making 50LPA in India. Getting offers from Germany, Spain for 100000 euros per year. What should I choose? Relocating to Europe or stay back in India? How are savings in European countries compared to India? I know quality of life will be better in Europe. But is it true that you feel alone there (being away from family)? Anybody with similar experience?

Hey guys, Wanted to know your opinions and if someone has walked similar path before. I am in infrastructure engineering domain, want to transition into core backend with full stack. I have roamed around abroad and found really great quality of life - 1. Food quality is damn good! 2. Spending power when you travel with that currency to other parts of the world 3. Disciplined 4. Power of people, where the rules are same for all. You are just as powerful or weak as a politician in regards to upholding the law. I like these concepts and want to explore living abroad, learning cultures, traditions and people. I was thinking of getting into a Europe based company(understand the pay would be less but I get to roam EU countries with better work life balance) for my backend role and leave my current job to prepare for it as my entire day is sucked off by this current high paying job and it's not fun anymore Thoughts? Tldr - Not happy with my current life sucking role at startup. Have experienced better life abroad as a tourist. Want to switch to a job abroad and experience customs, traditions, people, culture, languages!

Have been working in India in a product role for about 5 years, looking to move to UK/Europe. Any suggestions on how to accomplish that?
