What are the requirements like? Is it a smart idea? How’s the job market? Any advice?

Thanks in advance
You’re going the wrong way. The opportunities in the USA are way more in number and dramatically higher in pay. Europe sucks and you will struggle to get a job here unless you pay huge sums for a type-rating at Wizzair or Ryanair where you will be rewarded with extremely low pay. A vast number of Europeans would give anything at the chance to fly in the USA.
