Just responding only to open positions mentionning remote work or stating that you want remote only to the thousands of head hunters in linkedin is enough.
What does "in your area" really mean when looking for remote work?
Are you referring to speciality or geographic area? For some specialities, if the specialty doesn't have remote work (say it's robotics or biotech or something else with a heavy lab component), you might be out of luck. If it's geographic, well, find headhunters in another geography.
>What does "in your area" really mean when looking for remote work?
Due to employment, tax and labor laws in my country, remote work still has to be done for a company that has a presence in my country. I can't have an employment contract with a company not based here, only B-2-B.
So remote basically limits me to local companies, which don't usually offer 100% remote work posibilities.
That's what B-2-B is, which is what I said. And it sucks because then you loose the employment perks of being an employee: sick leave, parental leve, included healthcare, paid time off, etc.
You can negociate some of those in the term of your b2b contract. And in the case of healthcare, the company supposedly doesn't have to pay for it so they can pay that additionnal amount to you directly.
