I had the same problem in Canada. Then I moved to the US. Now I have recruiters begging me to come work at their company at least once a week.

You should move to the US, it'll be much easier to find work

I wanted to go to the US for at least 4 years now, and I've applied to a lot of US companies.

It's tough as a European CS grad to do that (or I suppose at least when you're me). You can't just move to the US. Not as an above average CS grad with some experience in web development and code bootcamp instructor.

I even applied to Full Stack Academy 2 years ago while I was still teaching at The New York Code + Design Academy as a lead instructor, they never sent anything, and I think that's mostly because a H1B visa is hard to get for a company, not because I lacked the skills (that's my optimistic guess anyways).

How do you manage living in US. HN tells me that living here is terrible in every possible way compare to Canada and even more terrible compare to Europe?
By having a lot of money.
