Is it impossible to work for agencies in overseas remotely? I’m currently out of the state and I’ve talked to some recruiters in the US and they all said to reach them out when I come back to the state. I have a duel-citizenship of the country where I’m staying at and the US. The roles were 100% remote jobs.

It might have more to do with taxes or IT security. We can’t work with people outside of the US for both of those reasons.

I see, one of the recruiter told me about the tax but I don’t think it’s hard to figure that out though 🤷🏼‍♀️

Maybe their concern was more about time zone differences?

Not sure about time zone difference, but that could play the main factor :(

It’s possible. just not likely.

Why do you have to tell them your location?

Also don’t charge based off location.

That’s what I prefer to, i don’t think anyone will consider my candidacy if I tell them I’m out of the state :( maybe I shouldn’t update my locations on my resume and LinkedIn.

I don’t think it’s impossible. I have a friend who started freelancing after the pandemic and did really well. She’s relocating to Europe and working remotely. Don’t know how she’s gonna deal with the time zone difference though.

I'm in pretty much the same boat as you are. Thinking of moving back to the US because of it.

I booked two gigs as a freelancer. The first one was for 6 months and they had no idea I wasn't in the country. The second one was hiring in a rush and I only told them during the interview. I assured them the time difference wouldn't matter. It helped that I did the first gig though.

Ymmv but sometimes some "untruthing" is helpful. Or just never bring it up lol

So I've been at my job for 5+ years as a data analyst/back office support team. I made my way up into making a little over $40k. I've been WFH the past 2 yrs and overtime more than half my team has now been pulled out to work for a diff department which resulted in me taking 90% of our daily tasks to handle. I'm at a point where the salary I'm getting is disrespectfully low for all the work I do. Should I ask for a raise? And if so, how do I go about asking without sounding greedy.

Hello Folks,
Can you pls advise on which company to go for.
R-Systems : They are providing WFH + clarity on the project and team for which I’ll be working upon.
CTS : No clarity as of now, only thing I am aware is that I’m a part of full stack community.
HCL : Some clarity on the project but less package than other two.
R-Systems and CTS are giving same CTC.
YOE ~8
Skill set : . Net full stack + Angular + Azure

Thanks

I’ve been working to an unhealthy degree lately. And I’ve been making the excuse that I have a lot of work right now, but I’m starting to wonder if I’m addicted to it. Part of it is anxiety and perfectionism. But my behavior is now actively harmful to myself and starting to harm my marriage.

How do I stop? I’m not talking work-life balance. I mean, how do I say, “I don’t care that the client wants this tomorrow and I’m not close to done, I’m going to sleep tonight”?

I didn't apply for a job that would have set me up for the future in the government. I wouldn't have to worry about money or future jobs. My boss had just given me a small pay rise and talked up the future and so I felt good. I now severely regret not applying for the job and cannot stop thinking about it to the point of insomnia and depression. I even contacted the employer but too late. It's a small town and rarely anything comes up. I hate myself and feel like I failed my family. :(
