From the construction industry to the tourism sector, Greek employers cannot find the staff they need. The government's solution: longer working hours. A new law enables employers to implement a six-day work week
If you had a job that could sustain you and you get a new job within EU that can also sustain you, it’s about as expensive as you would expect a long distance move to be.
There’s no system in place as far as I know to block you from getting permanent residency in another EU country because you don’t have starting money. That’s just your inherent responsability to figure out like with any move.
A good example of how this is not the case is the UK and Dentists. When Brexit hit and they left the EU (picture if the right in the US had their immigration way), a ton of immigrant Dentists had to leave. It was easy to stay before because of the EU. Now there is a huge shortage of dentists. Surprise surprise.
Legitimate question: aren’t there barriers / hurdles to permanent residency still?
The barriers are your skills and language. Other than that, no.
Edit: some people move without permanent residency anyway. It has its’ drawbacks.
Got it, that’s all I meant. I thought there were requirements, it’s not just “pack our bags, we’re moving to Germany tomorrow”
That’s almost how I migrated, except I had to give a month’s notice at work and I’d already found an address to register at.
If you have a child it is more complicated than that. You need starting money to be able to move.
