Was wondering the other day how hard is it to find jobs within the EU. I am curious as to which countries are more welcoming to fellow Europeans and which ones are harder. For a Italian for example , would it be hard for him/her to get a job in let's say Neederlands

Nowadays most mediterranean countries (Spain, Italy, Portugal, Greece) are moving North (France, Germany, UK, Netherlands as main countries)

Lots of Eastern Europeans are moving West (to North-Western countries but also to places like Italy or Spain, where conditions are better for them than in their own land)

Finding a job is kind of difficult everywhere, but it is easier in some countries than in others.

For example, in my home country, Spain, someone who just finished college could find a job that pays maybe 700 euros or 1000 euros if lucky. And that would be a 6 months or 1 year contract.

In the country I am living in, Belgium, someone who just finished college could find a job with at least a 5 year long contract and a starting salary of 1500 or more.

The EU is already collapsing in case you've missed the news. But if by chance you make the strange decision to start learning German/French instead of Chinese(or English obviously!) then your best bet will be France or Germany.

Edit: lols, I meant to say: If someone doesn't speak English, sorry, which you already do...

Just because Nexit got avoided doesn't mean the eu is doing great (with Netherlands barely relevant in these days and age).

At current exchange rates, Britain is not even the 2nd largest any more and a long shot away from being the 1st. Thanks to Brexit it will be difficult to defend their 2nd place, let alone become the largest European economy.
The EU has its flaws but it is working fine for the most part and nothing is collapsing as we speak.

Dream on. The euroscepticists have lost every single election in Western Europe since the Brexit referendum. If anybody else would leave, they would've made their move already. And with the Brexit negotiations being a total FUBAR, nobody else wants to go trough the same. Some political commentator said that "Britain has a Queen high, the EU has a 27-card straight flush".

Actually, opinions about EU is on the rise: https://ec.europa.eu/malta/news/euro...timism-rise_en

One year after the referendum in the UK, an increasing majority of people in the EU are optimistic about the future of the European Union. Close to a majority of Europeans are now also optimistic about the state of their national economy. Trust in the European Union is growing – it is at its highest level since 2010, and support for the euro is greater than it has been since 2004.

The EU is not doing great, but it's doing fine.

The EU is advantageous for Deutschland. Everyone else suffers.

I think the EU should split into smaller unions. It's too expansive.
