Dave,I would hire you immediately. Unfortunately I don't have a high ranking
position in my company and have no say when it comes to the question who is
hired or not. I have worked the last 12 years for https://www.tdreply.de . One
of my colleagues, Daniel S., is American, he is from the east coast and works
as a data engineer here in Berlin in my team. For people who write code, data
engineers and data scientists seem to have the best opportunities at the
moment. For experienced experts who want to become a manger a "consultant" is
always an option. The higher you come in the corporate hierarchy, the more you
work with Excel and Email and the more you spend your time in meetings. The
company I work for belongs to the Italian Reply group, and they have an
American subcompany Valorem. Valorem has job offers for example in Kansas City,
and you can even say you know someone from the Reply group (me). I think they
do a lot of Microsoft stuff. https://www.valoremreply.com/careers/If you are in
favor of Microsoft, they have open jobs around the world, too, including
Europehttps://careers.microsoft.com/professionals/us/en/locations#EuropeApple
and Amazon are looking around the world too. The IT world has changed. As a
developer one is in a direct competition now with millions of competitors
around the world who all have access to GitHub, Google and StackOverflow. -J.

viral dose ∝ symptom severity Nick and all,I know my employment situation has
been raised on the list and at vFRIAM. I know that several of you have
expressed a willingness to explore alternatives. I really, really, appreciate
it.Unfortunately for me, I seem to be unemployable in my former profession. I
am not technical enough to get past HR, I do have a reputation as a bit of
extreme contrarian when it comes to Software Engineering, Scrum (really hate
it), Lean, and all but the XP form of Agile. Plus, I am old. (I had a job offer
at Spotify, until the team I was to work with — 3 women and one man, all in
early to mid-twenties — met me in a video interview. You could see the look on
their faces and know it was all over in less than ten seconds.)I attached the
resume to illustrate the problem. I would have been perfect at the job Frank
recommended and have made it to a video interview, but will be surprised, from
correspondence with them, if it goes further.I keep trying, and your well
wishes are truly appreciated.davewOn Wed, Aug 19, 2020, at 11:31 AM,
