I’ve had two remote jobs as a developer so far. I got the first one through a close friend and the second through a coworker from the first. The second job asked us to relocate and come into the office after a year so I quit. I’ve been living off savings overseas for the last year now with no job.

I understand networking is very important but I don’t seem to have any good connections at the moment. I do get messages from recruiters on linkedin as well as job boards like Dice, but many of these are for roles beyond my experience level or hybrid/in-office

      I got news for you. If you’re not a citizen of the country you’re located in and you don’t have a work visa for that country, you’re probably working illegally, whether or not your employer realizes. (Some exceptions for EU citizens, Canada, etc.)

      I know that a lot of banks and insurance companies offer remote work, both for internships and full time.
