US
United States
The deepest part of the directory. Six routes, two of them self-petitioned.

A points-based entry to look for work, inside a wider skilled-worker framework.

Netherlands
The employer applies first, through a recognised-sponsor register with age-banded salary thresholds.

Salary clears stage one; a 40-point COMPASS score decides stage two.
