Hello all, this is my first post in the community. I've a question about remote working from the UK fro companies in the US. If found a sticking point: when you get to the part of the application where it asks "do you need a visa for the country you're applying to work in". Because I'm a UK citizen, I have to reply "Yes" at which point I abort my application. Has anyone had similar challenges? Does anyone have any advice to get beyond this sticking point? Looking forward to any advice, thanks.

OP: Do you have a work visa for the US? Note that even if you have a visa, most companies won’t let you work remotely as the IRS requires you to be physically located in the US most of the year, for tax purposes. Unless you’re a contractor - it may be different.

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.

They’re seeking someone with 5-8 years experience. I have the latter (8 almost 9)

How would I approach this when asked without pricing myself out of the position? Especially if they’re not willing to be upfront (assuming here) how much they’d want to offer me in particular.
