About Event

In the last 5+ years in Germany as a software developer I've:

  • Worked as an employee for almost 2 years on a blue card visa

  • was laid off more than once

  • Worked as a freelancer for last 3+ years on a freelancer visa

Recently, I got my EU Permanent residency application approved inspite of different challenges(related to Covid, ongoing war in Europe etc.,) I faced as an expat freelancer over the last 3+ years in Germany.

The peace of mind and the sense of relief that comes with this is hard to express in words. My linkedin post here has more details about my story, in case you'd like to learn more.

If you'd like to learn about how I relocated to Germany from India: How a German company sponsored my relocation to Berlin
