| Throw away account. There are a lot of great opportunities for great front-end and designer in US/Canada. However, the biggest thing against you will most likely be your accent and your english. People won't tell you straight in your face, but unless you can communicate very fluidly you'll have a hard time finding a full-time job.. even more if working remotely. I don't know how good is your english/accent, but I'd recommend taking english lesson with someone that could teach you how to improve your accent. IMHO that will yield SO MUCH more opportunity than learning another web framework . While learning that, I'd recommend picking a modern web framework and getting really good at it. I.e. React/Redux/Graphql/html/css. Once you have your english communication + base front-end knowledge, apply to startup that offer visa. Startups are great because they often can't pay a huge salary so they need to be more creative and give more chance to people with different background. I wouldn't be too picky about the startup vision or whatever, as long as they have cash in the bank, aren't toxic and can help you move. Once you've moved and landed a job, keep learning and improving in your spare time, stack cash, and after 1-2 years, feel free to move to better company. But again, the strong accent / bad english is what will most likely make it very hard so I'd invest in that first. |
