CYBERSECURITY JOB HUNTING GUIDE
Work permit
Author: Stefan Waldvogel
How can you get a work permit?
Sometimes it is possible to move to a new country, but you are not allowed to work or only work in a particular field or for a specific amount of time.
If you want to work in a country, you need work and a resident permit (visa). You might think, what is with remote jobs? This idea does not work because you want a higher salary. If you work remotely in your county, you will most likely get your local wage and not the target salary. There are few companies without this "adjustment." One is BHIS, and it does not matter where you are in the world; you get $25 per hour for your work. If you want such a job, work extra, extra, extra hard, because you compete against all people worldwide.
Most likely, you want a work permit for the US, UK, EU countries, or Australia. Each country has its own rules. It is a lot easier to get a work permit in Germany than in the US or the UK. Germany is friendly against immigration. The US, on the other side, has strict rules.
On the other hand, it is easier to be an undocumented immigrant in the US. This path does not help you because you want a well-paid job and undocumented immigrants often work in restaurants for a meager salary with no protection. You cannot work for an excellent company and get a high compensation if you do not have the proper paperwork.
