It is hard if you are a qualified professional looking for work in your area, not if you are classified as a refugee.

Which is the opposite to how it should be.

Why? The whole point of accepting refugees is that they're running away from a horrible situation from where they came from (persecution, war, famine, genocide, uninhabitable weather, you get the gist) and accepting them is saving their lives. They are, in theory, the ones most in need.

Of course there are people just looking for better economic opportunities, and people who target specific Western countries to be a refugee in (e.g. Pakistanis that show up in Germany - if they were really fleeing from a critical situation they would stop in the first place that is calm and safe, not continue the journey to a richer country), but they aren't really refugees in the actual sense of the word.
