    I think that this website is a very great idea... I am a web developer, but I am also passionnate about career advices... I can give a real sample to explain why I am so happy to talk about this new website.

    I have a great network of web developpers, system administrators... living of North Africa... Here in Paris, we need them, but it's not so easy to hire them...A website that focus only on companies that are ready to help you sponsoring visa is a really great idea.

    In another way, On my linkedIn account, I often receive propostions from recruters (dubai, asia,...) or startups in other countries that are looking for webdeveloppers. Now if I receive one, I'll forward them to techmeabroad...

    The whole approach of finding a job which sponsors a visa seems very wrong to me.

    I'd rather focus on working on what I'm passionate about.

    Once you got that figured out, if you just put your time and effort to become one of the best at what you do, the bureaucratic obstacles become merely a distraction.
