Working abroad since Brexit - job search

Hello all,

I'm hoping to move abroad within the next year, preferably in Europe and I wondered if anyone has any experience of doing so since Brexit and can offer any advice.

Firstly, where to look? Are there any specific sites that cater to English speakers looking to work abroad? Any sites which feature jobs which offer a Visa?

I realise we are now regarded as a third nation country throughout Europe and in many cases a job offer and visa are required prior to moving. Does anyone know of any countries in Europe where the visa process is simpler and more in our favour? I'm very much open to any suggestions. I previously lived and worked in Budapest prior to Brexit and also spent some time in Berlin.

Anyone has who went down the route of the visa process and finding work and how that went for them?

Anyone who has managed to find a job which offers a Visa 
 
I currently work for the civil service and regularly check their job site for opportunities abroad but they seem few and far between and the search option for work abroad is poor imo.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated :smile:

    Click on 'working abroad after brexit' and you get a lot of links to a whole range of sites, some 'official' giving purely information, others much chattier and with links to recruitment sites.
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!
