Germany is very strict about marks. Most public universities in Germany want good grades in your Bachelor degree. If you have low GPA (like less than 7.5), it is very hard to get seat in top colleges there. They don't care much about your work experience, they only see your college subjects and credits. But Ireland is different. Irish universities look at your profile properly. If you have 2-3 years of relevant experience in IT or coding, they can give you admission even with less marks.
