I've been working as a developer for a few years, but barely ever leave the tiny place I grew up. Well, work experience is always great. Basically everywhere wants experienced devs.
It doesn't sound like you're accepted into a master's program or anything. Is there anything preventing you from working for a couple of years and then deciding on whether you want to go abroad? Maybe even just immigrate and avoid the additional schooling?
Idk, cs is so weird like if you know the right person you can make a ton of cash, but I know other people working as temporary contractors. I'd be hesitant to pass it up, but I'm extremely risk averse and no desire to move.
Hard to say, comrade. I think it's pretty common in this industry to take a low paying job and transition that into more pay. Part of me says enjoy the whimsy while you're young, but idk. In my current role it'd be so hard for me to take a paycheck to paycheck gig, and I understand the hesitation.
I guess you'll know more if/when you get an offer. If you've applied 100 places and it looks bleak, you may have it decided for you.
The immigration shit is what I really have zero knowledge about. I basically could have picked a person for a nice internship at my last job, but they wouldn't hire the person I put up because of sponsoring a foreign national, but that's for the US, blah blah. Could be completely different elsewhere.
