Honestly, highly-skilled work can get you anywhere, that or highly niche. Ideally both

That is a problem with this work, highly skilled labor is only wanted, especially recently with Germany & rest of the Northern countries turning more Farther Right, starting with “Standard/familiar” Right to “Crazy/Nazy” Right. Plus, what is defined as “Highly Skilled”,

I would love to be in Denmark, right now, being trying for decades, but unless you have “Highly Skills” or family roots you are getting in.

Niche is also a good way though, like super-specialist but not actually necessarily needing skill, such as Train Overhead Linesman
