How can I Migrate easily to Europe?

Every Malayalee dreams of migrating to a country abroad, especially to any GCC or European country. In fact, it is easy to find malayalees in any part of the world, as they find foreign countries fascinating, with millions of job opportunities. However, people who do not have a high academic background find it difficult to migrate. This could be mostly because of the absence of job opportunities for their qualification and skills. Here is one country in Europe where migrating is quite easy regardless of your academic background – Croatia.

Locationally, Croatia lies close to Slovenia, Hungary, Austria, Switzerland, Germany and Italy. Croatia has a population of over 40,00,000 with Zagreb as its Capital. Though the official language of the country is Croatian, more than 80% of the population speak English, making the country comfortable for foreigners. Since Croatia has still not become a Schengen country, finding a visa to migrate to this country is quite hassle free.

If you look at Croatia, the country offers many job opportunities for both insiders and outsiders alike. Natives, however, choose to immigrate to other countries making the job vacancies more available for foreigners. This is perfect for Indians with lower educational qualifications, as they can grab a job easily for their skills. Croatia is a country that gives job opportunities in cable jointing services. This is a fairly new sector and it can be easily done by anyone, regardless of their educational background. Ideally, a person who has qualified in ITI electrician or Wireman course or has experience as an electrician can easily grab this opportunity. There are short term cable joint training course in India that give you a good idea about the field.

Croatia is perfect for unskilled workers. While countries like Germany and Denmark do not give work visas to unskilled, unqualified, inexperienced workers, Croatia accepts them with open hands. Croatia provides work visas even to people with low educational qualifications. If you are just a 10^th pass and do not find an apt job in India, Croatia would be an ideal place. With a cable joint training course, finding a job becomes much easier as well.

Salaries in Schengen countries are higher though; they provide more than 2 lakhs INR to qualified professionals. Since unskilled workers don’t have a chance there, normal jobs in Croatia would pay you 50,000 – 70,000 INR. This is in fact much higher than what you get in India and GCC countries.

One good thing about Croatia is that there is no unemployment in the country. While the natives migrate to richer countries like Germany and Finland, the jobs remain intact and the opportunities go to foreigners. Thus, people from South Asia – India, Pakistan and Bangladesh especially– enter Croatia and get good jobs that pay them well for their qualification. Since cable jointing services is in high demand, cable jointing training in India would come handy before migrating.

There was a time when Poland was trending for its job opportunities, but they have eventually started rejecting visas of unskilled workers. This is mainly because, people first come to Poland and later move to other countries like France and Germany with a Poland Visa, creating a huge void in industries in Poland. This has made immigration tight in the country. However, this is impossible in Croatia as traveling to other countries with a Croatian Visa requires special permission and it is not provided easily. Usually, in Schengen countries, the chances of visa rejection are high, especially for work visa. Student visas are fairly easy to obtain, but they are more expensive.  Croatia would become one of the Schengen countries by 2024, so we are unsure about the migration process and visa provision by then.

Croatia is such a beautiful European country to live in. With aesthetic surroundings and neat and safe localities, Croatia could be a dream destination to work. With a certification in cable jointing training course, it is much easier to find a job in the country. You don’t require proficiency tests like IELTS to enter the country either. It is only in countries like the UK and Ireland where IELTS is mandatory. Europe does not need such proficiency tests. All you need is  a  cable jointing training certificate and a positive outlook to work in Croatia. Everything else will fall in place quite well.
