    Finland is tricky to get into though, if you don’t already have family or a similar connection. Haven’t looked at China, any idea what would be involved with emigrating there? I’m curious how much they’re paving the way for new talent to come in.

      That statement just isn’t true. Anybody can get into Finland. After 3 months it gets trickier; if you’re not an EU citizen it’s usually about getting work.

      But I’ve been saying for years the EU should be granting political asylum to people from USA; at first half-jokingly, now maybe 10% jokingly.

        Right, the conversation was about emigrating to other countries. My understanding is that the job market in Finland is particularly tight, especially if you’re not already there.

          What exactly do you mean?

          especially if you’re not already there.

          Are you saying in other countries it’s easy to get jobs even though you’re not there?
