    Getting visa is difficult. I am trying to get a job. It is not exactly easy either. I get almost no response for US based positions. Know any companies that are open to sponsorships? I have about 2 years of scientific and CAD software development experience, primarily in C++.

      Unfortunately I don’t. Have you spent any time working in the web sphere? There are a lot of jobs for back-end website developers.

      Getting into development is hard, because there are so many bottom-tier engineers that’ll undercut your efforts, but once you get established it gets a lot better. I struggled to find work for years until I finally had a lucky break. I don’t have any immediate solutions for you, but I encourage you to stick with it, even if you have to shift focus a little. It can pay off big time in the end. Best of luck, friend.

      Edit: working on some personal projects and creating a great portfolio can really help you stand out from the competition. When I was getting established I constantly bid on jobs above my skill level for less money than I deserved, just to get the experience and portfolio item. In the end that worked out well for me.

        I know backend development to some extent. Have worked with Node.js and flask. Maybe I can start from there. Thank you.
