Hello US fish!
What advice would you give a London-based writer/CD/ECD looking to work (remotely) for US-based clients? I’m relocating to Costa Rica for a few months next year so trying to make the time difference work. I don’t mind what sectors but, ideally, short-term writing gigs. Any tips on approaching clients/agencies? Which recruiters are worth reaching out to or are they all in league with Satan? Should I just give up now and get a job counting turtles? Thx

Just cannot get into my job lately. I don’t know if it’s the hormones, the upcoming FET transfer next week, or if I’m truly just over my company. I’ve been there 5 1/2 years. I started out as an executive assistant and last year I created a path for myself for communications. Almost a year into the role, a new manager was brought on, to my surprise. She is great, but I’m finding I don’t have enthusiasm for this role at all. I don’t think I have a choice to go back to being an executive assistant

Currently I'm in a .net and sql server maintenance and operations project at a service company. I want to switch to a full stack developer position in a good product company.

But they are different and I would like to stick to one path and capitalize on it. Please help which one to choose- MERN or .NET?
