Which US-obtained college degrees are accepted and valued in the European Union

Which US-obtained college degrees are accepted and valued in the European Union?
Particularly interested in France and other countries. For example, an American nurse can't get a job in France normally. Are there professions that you can learn in the US but then go back and have your degree accepted? Thank you!

usually you have to work for a French company that also has offices or factories in the U.S. SO you are already an employee of the company. This gets your foot in the door. So if they need you at the "home office" in France (or whatever country), you can easily work there. Usually, such professions are engineering, accounting, purchasing, various finance or business type degrees and jobs . Any profession that is a government job, or highly protected by unions, you'll never get a job in France or any other EU country. Such jobs include nurses, teachers, factory workers (any blue-collar job) . A boring office job in a big multi-national corporation is your only chance.
