From my experience: User comes at the bottom of a long form, tries to click the button to go further and it doesn't work. No idea why it doesn't work, it just doesn't. Then has to go on a wild goose chase to find why somewhere in the form something isn't validated; nothing of this is highlighted so good luck finding it.

And greying out/making this transparent in no way comes anywhere near a decent contrast rate for people with non-perfect eye-sight.

Quite a fan of the work Great Simple Studio has been putting out, such as https://files.design/

The story of my trip deep into Augmented Reality where I came out on the other side as a reformed carpenter.

Yeah, there's quite a large english speaking UX community here. Another large employer is Zalando. Feel free to drop me a note, when you're seriously considering moving.

Have a look for Cogs Berlin on Linkedin: http://cogsagency.com/offices/berlin/ should be easy to find someone who works with companies in your area of expertise.

It's already a while back I worked in Amsterdam, I think what they've in common is that both have a lot of companies and you can get away with English. Amsterdam is also a wealthy, modern (and a bit touristy city). Berlin is something else altogether, it's great, but there's still a lot of work to be done to get the whole city in the 21st century (which also comes with the opportunity to do things differently).

Yes, I've done this. (moved from Amsterdam to London to Berlin).

Perhaps the trick is to reframe it from hiring internationally to hiring you locally, after which you move.

Unless you are exceptionally good, it's going to hard to have someone provide you with a full-time contract and visa after a few skype-calls. Meeting people face to face, even just for an hour, can make things happen a lot easier and faster.

A first easy step could be to find an English speaking recruiter in the cities you're interested in and see if they are up for a Skype call. A bit more costly could be to go to a city for a short time and try to meet up with some local designers (meetup.com can be a good source to find events to meet people). Even more expensive (but it works the best) is to put everything you have now in storage , rent a local Airbnb for a month and start looking for a job.

In most capital cities (like Berlin or Amsterdam) it should be possible to find an English speaking job (although UX jobs are a bit harder than UI jobs from my experience).

I would also recommend to think in cities instead of countries (in most countries, smaller cities can be hard to get started if you only speak English).

Good luck!

I remember a different variation; wherein the designer requests to be paid as a percentage of the additional revenue generated after the redesign.
