Want to leave the US?
Here's how you can move to germany, even if you have no official credentials (like a university degree) or job that can get you a sponsored visa.
Germany is not perfect. We have our own fascism issues, but we didn't just elect someone who openly paraphrases hitler as supreme leader.
Step 1: Start studying for german B1 language level. Duolingo can get you there, I also heard good things about babbel and other apps.
Step 2: Find an apprenticeship. Apprenticeships in Germany are weird compared to the rest of the world. It's a mostly full time job with a bad wage that is supposed to train you how to do a job. Finding one, if you have B1 language skills, entitles you to a work permit for the duration of it, completing one entitles you to a settlement permit.
I did an apprenticeship in IT, but there's many options. Healthcare is one of the options with the best chances of getting hired and it pays pretty well compared to others. If you don't mind waking up early, bakeries often receive not a single application for their apprenticeship postings.
I would recommend you to not go into the major cities, as their immigration offices are overworked and rent is too high to pay from an apprentice wage.
Step 3: Finish the apprenticeship and apply for a settlement permit
Step 4: Congrats, you can now live in germany as long as you want and work in any industry
Step 5: After 3-5 years (depending on how well you do at work or how good your language skills are) you can apply for citizenship. If you get that, you can live and work in any EU country.
