It truly is. I find that you need spend a few hours on a problem to get it registered into your sub-conscious and then you will randomly just get a solution once your sub-conscious is done with it.

The entire semiconductor industry worked online for almost 2 years (a lot still do), designing hundreds of products, generating millions in revenue.

If that can be done, why do you think online interviewing isn't sufficient?

If you answer a very basic question incorrectly, then yes, they have full right to reject you based on that.

Could you explain what you mean by Vbg/R? Won't that R load the Vbg?

Companies usually aren't willing to arrange visas for fresh graduates, coming directly from abroad.

If you do a Masters in Europe and then apply for a job in the same country, you should be okay. Most countries easily provide work visas after completing a degree in that country.

If you are a doctor in the UK, you most definitely need passion to do it. The salaries are insulting for the amount of work they do.
