Yes, I would say so. The software developer pool in Stockholm is running really dry. So the market is really hot and it has been this way for a few years now.

Here at $MEGA_CORP we did some recruiting recently and we hired from all over Europe. One good(?) thing is that the political situation in Russia is quite crappy at the moment, so there it is possible to recruit top talent from there.

I guess hiring from the across the pond is slightly harder. But if you pass the normal skype/phone/online interviews and you are good it shouldn't be a huge problem to fly you over for an onsite interview.
