I too moved to Germany (from Sweden), and I think the talent sorting and the related obsession with titles is both bizarre and suboptimal.


If you think Germany is title obsessed, try Austria...


Or France, as I said. I knew "CTI" software engineers (so, "real" engineers according to the french school system) who didn't know what version control is. Or what a class is. People with a degree of lesser reputation actually do the job while they get the money.
