Any college degree. I started working when I was 14, finished high school when I was 16 and went straight into tech instead of uni. Supposedly there's an exception where they evalu…

I'm curious where you find them? One frustration is that only 2 job search sites (angel list and weworkremotely) have any featured to list "will hire from anywhere". Remote general…

Great suggestions, thanks! > You can always create an LLC in the US and work for it remotely. So your employer pays a contractor (your LLC), LLC pays you dividends. Talk to an acco…

I am married to a Turk and am here on a residential permit that I renew every 3 years.

We'd love it. I've applied to a few dozen jobs in Amsterdam, Paris, Barcelona and Copenhagen. I'm shocked at the low salaries, but still I get tripped up by my lack of a degree.

> Most places have at least a couple hours of overlap with the US. What time zone are you in? UTC+3 (Istanbul). Realistically I get 2-4 hours per day overlap with San Francisco and…

Sadly, it is not an EU country I live in, or the issue would have solved itself, and I'd have citizenship by now. I can't actually get a work permit in the country I live (turkiye)…

Hi! I'm a DevOps/Sysadmin/whatever from the USA (California). I accidentally got married (in Turkiye, not the EU) while on vacation 8 years ago and never really came back. Since I …
