I think a lot of these job postings would have a lot more success if they showed salary ranges, in fact that just applies to all job postings.<p>Why apply for EU remote working (if living in the EU) when you can remote work for a US based company? The timezone is off but programmers should be able to work autonomously and independently.
When you are full-time employed, remotely, by a european company, and living in another european country, does anyone know :<p>— do you set yourself up as a freelance consultant, and pay your healthcare and retirement fund yourself?<p>— …or do you let the company pay that for you in the country they are based in, and somehow benefit from that?<p>How does it work exactly for these social benefits that are very important in the european welfare model?
Thanks! This is really nice. I find it frustrating to browse remote job ads only to find out at the end, that they mean "remote, but US only".<p>(Of course I can understand why US companies make this restriction, I just wish other job boards would help them make this more clear up front.)
> You should be (or have a strong desire to become) a HTML5 geek, JavaScript nerd and CSS wizard.<p>I had to double check if I am reading a job ad or hipster blogger's about page.<p>Though, the site itself is great, there are indeed many 'remote' job ads, though somehow by default many are 'remote in USA', so it's great value.
This is awesome.<p>One observation: maybe in this case, including the number of subscribers is actually a deterrent for getting people to subscribe. I'm talking about the "Join over 1100 subscribers." line.<p>You may be triggering a "damn, I'm going to have to compete with <i>that</i> many other developers for the same handful of jobs?" response instead of the usual "If that many people trust this guy with their email, it must be OK for me to give it" one that this best practice suggests.
As an Indian, I doubt I'll qualify for work in these companies. The problem for non-EU, non-US devs wishing to work remotely [1] is that most companies can't legally employ you or aren't willing to jump through bureaucratic hoops just to employ you.<p>I'd subscribed to a remote-only jobs board and the issue was that either I didn't qualify for work due to my residency, or the company never really responded.<p>I would say if these issues didn't exist most companies wouldn't have to import a workforce from elsewhere. Most third-world countries have a decent quality of life that we wouldn't have to transplant ourselves & be harassed by less-qualified xenophobic residents just to work and pay obscene taxes (by third-world standards) that in the end does serve them.<p>I'd love for the EU and the US to become more Anti-immigrant (thankfully it's rising) and for the populace to wake up once the industries that kept them at the top move out of there.<p>[1] - Most of us speak fluent English and are aware of western cultural sensibilities & work ethics (thanks, Hollywood! & outsourcing firms). Our skill level isn't to blame either since we adhere to industry standards in code-quality, best practices, design patterns, etc.<p>I'm Westernized, loved America & the U.K. when I visited them and the people were awesome, but thanks to nationalities and nationalists the U.S. has imposed these arbitrary impediments designed to keep away those willing to move from their native countries to further their careers.
How are you filtering these jobs? Six jobs in a week (the interval between emails) seems a bit on the low end to me. Maybe you apply very strict criteria for including a job on the list?<p>I couldn't resist and applied a similar filter to the jobs / gigs I found for my own service, SendGigs. I require one of the the tags full-time or salary, and exclude everything that is tagged US-only. Then I'm left with 20 jobs, see <a href="https://www.sendgigs.com/2015-12-10" rel="nofollow">https://www.sendgigs.com/2015-12-10</a><p>So at least to me it looks like there is a lot of remote opportunities for non-US developers. And it is getting better with more and more companies figuring out remote work.
Note that to submit jobs, here's the link: <a href="http://europeremotely.com/submit_job.html" rel="nofollow">http://europeremotely.com/submit_job.html</a><p>(I started writing this as a question but found the answer myself in the footer links...)<p>We're based roughly around London time -- though we now have developers from Costa Rica to Bangalore. Bangalore was easy, though, and US timezones were harder. The gap in timezones there is big enough that it took us a while to jump that successfully (and people working in US timezones still need to be fairly independent), so I imagine it works similarly in the other direction (US-based companies hiring EU-based remote workers)... once the gap is more than 3-4 hours you either need an established core of senior full-stack people in that timezone range, or just proceed quite carefully and offer extra support.
I very nearly managed an application from my iPhone<p>The Elixr position had a "apply with LinkedIn" which worked surprisingly well (must look into how, that seems a sellable app), and I almost had an online CV to upload. Almost.
