1. Okay, but have you read the FAQs here yet?
2. You have to make your own decision. A good method for decision-making is the "decision grid." See the FAQs.

3.b. Yes, you can.
4. Read the FAQs.
5. You need to move and obtain legal work status before anybody will hire you. Read the FAQs.
6. You have to make a short list, then decide for yourself, using a decision grid.
7. You don't need more certificates. You need to build a portfolio (start making game-related stuff).
