If I´d like to continue living and working in f**** Germany I would do so.
I have been in Canada in the past and do really like it, the country, it´s people, their lifestyle and attitude.

And no, the WHV is not only geared at college students, its for people from Germany and the Netherlands, cutoff age is 35.

And of course would they hire me, if they see me fit for the position being offered. As mentioned before by Altaflyer, there are a lot of people working on that visa basis.
And due to the German educational system I have obtained skills which are very often viewed superior to those in other countries.

Also, immigration processing for skilled immigration takes about 14 to 17 month these days, instead of 45 month till 2008.
