I lived in Colombia in 2021. I stayed the maximum time of 6 months with a visa extension while collecting a w2 U.S. pay check. Challenge 1: You likely need to maintain a U.S. address for tax purposes. Challenge 2: Most large employers forbid leaving the country with company or client equipment. Challenge 3: Receiving anything through mail, requires customs, complicated shipping process. Challenge 4: Employers get really nervous about the legality of you being in another country. Best case scenario you get a cool manager, a gray area in the company, and you can go for like 6 weeks under the radar, assuming no geo fence around the network.

I overcame it by finding a small desperate consulting company with millions on the line. I gave them a good price point on salary and said all I ask is that you allow me to be in Colombia for 3 months during the client engagement, it turned into 6 months. I caused zero issues due to my location. Also the interviewer/owner of the company interviewed me from Brazil while visiting family. So I got very lucky.

I’ve since tried this approach with zero success with large companies. I know some employers allow it like GitHub, but it’s rare. Self employment would be easiest. If you try to hide it through VPN you risk your job.

My experience is that it’s tough.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people.

I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.

Tough time getting past final step: I’ve been trying to make a career shift for 10 months now and continue to get rejected at the last step. Im confident in the value I can provide and do well at presenting it. However, once it’s comes down to me and 1-2 other candidates, I repeatedly have been turned down for the person who has more relevant experience as they’re a safer bet for the employer. Would love advice from anyone who’s dealt with this before. It’s tough to get them to take a risk on me

Made a career pivot to another agency. During the interview we talked about how it may start as initially a "step backwards" (pay/benefits) but has potential for more long term growth. First day was yesterday. Had no communication about when or where to show up, sat in an empty office for about half an hour before a couple people finally showed. No phone call or email. Sent an email to the founder, no response. I could easily get my old job back if wanted.

What would you do in this situation?
