>To reside in a country you need to find a job
>To find a job you need to reside in the country

I'm kinda retarded, what's actually the first step?

>show up on tourist visa
Some countries require everyone to show up on a tourist visa no matter what your intention of stay is.
>get a job AS A FOREIGNER
This step is important. Don't try to LARP as a citizen, it's not gonna work. You have to get hired by a company which is specifically seeking to hire a foreigner.
>once you get hired, get your work visa

One option is to work for a company that has branches in that country, and then request to be transferred to a branch over there. Alternatively, have skills so high in demand that sending an email to the company is enough for them to fly you out for an interview. The second one sounds like astrophysicist shit, but it really isn't. Where do you want to work, anon?

As someone who's been offered jobs while abroad, it's a way to quietly dismiss spammers and people not even close to being qualified.
Long answer:

Most jobs, if your qualified (I work in IT and have a vast amount of IT certs and exp) most can offer you positions assuming you have the ABILITY to reside within the country. Being there on a tourist visa is often a good way to gauge if you're good enough to be hired as you got a tourist visa but not all. For the most part, there are a lot of extra steps in which you need to do and go under a magnifying glass to reside there from work.

A “go fuck yourself” in all caps is definitely going to be tossed in here down the line

Look for jobs in that country. Apply to them and see if they will sponsor you a visa. You might get lucky, usually they will list it upfront if they are willing to even do it though. Worse case they just ignore you. No harm done.

This also is an option if you work for a multi-country corpo

Every country has different rules

I moved to another continent Australia-->Ireland, my visa allowed me to arrive and find a job there but luckily my job is in demand and I did a teams interview from home and landed a role there.
Have a job which is in demand.

Not really, provided a company is willing to sponsor your visa.
All I needed to do was to show up at the embassy to submit the requirements and after some time you get your passport back with the visa on it. Some documents you'll have to provide yourself such as your diploma and other qualifications, others are from your sponsor such as the job offer and registration details of the company.
t. got sponsored before moving, company took care of everything, from flights to freight shipping to accommodation for the first few months while helping me find a long term place to live.

yup. for most people with a reasonable skill set and no other way into a country this is a perfectly good plan. it's basically what i did and i know several other people who have done the same thing
if you don't actually have any skills then you could try doing a job where life is cheap and people are disposable like construction work in the third world but i wouldn't recommend it

Doesn't work that way. Turdworld doesn't import blue collar workers. Turdworld also implies brown and non English speaking countries, so unless you fit right in and you can speak the language there's no chance of you getting into any labor jobs, even if you entered under false pretenses as a tourist.
Turdie exports labor, but as a turdworlder you also just can't show up or send your resume to a factory abroad to get the job, you almost always have to go through some kind of government agency because countries and companies have agreements and programs to source cheap labor from poor countries while bypassing the typically high bar set for your standard work visas, usually passing you off as a "trainee" or an "intern". You get treated like an animal, herded into dormitories and factories, you'd be lucky if your company let you out and actually see the country, and even then it's going to be a guided tour to stop you from running away and going AWOL.

Don't reply to the insecurity guard, he comes into every thread like this to seethe at people who have the opportunity to live abroad because he wasted his youth and never got educated

>>2820413
oh it's you again. ya know anon if you put a bit less effort into being so unpleasant and a bit more into self improvement you wouldn't be such a bitter twisted little cunt and then maybe you could have a bit of a better life. probably not going to happen though

ok anon i'll mention that to the gang of bangladeshis building a condo in my neighbourhood who live a couple of streets away from me

I always get rejected, I'm assuming because of the fact that I'm not eligible to work in the EU as is? I need to send more applications out I guess

If you're in academia, it's trivial because academics move all the time. You apply for job listings, or contact group leaders online with your research proposal and credentials. If you get through all the interview rounds, they'll give you a job and sponsor your visa if you need one. They will cover travel costs for in-person interviews. You can also move short term as a visiting scientist to learn new skills. Unlike a lot of other fields, you will never age out of this mobility.

You’re right. I can’t argue
