Small correction: Foreigners from within the EU. Many of the Danish software companies have contracts with e.g. banks and government organisations, that makes them nervous about taking in people from outside the EU.

It depends very much on the company. It should be easy enough to find someone willing to hire you, but many won't.

I actually meant outside EU. I do not know of any places that would exclude foreigners due to government contracts. I see no lack of foreign hires within fintech and medical, and the usual government contract dumpsters (KMD, Netcompany, that sort) also hire foreigners. I myself work in a place that employs a lot of engineers from India on-site for example, and I know many companies like it.

Foreigners from within EU will have easier paperwork and living situation though.
