Hey HN community,<p>my plan is, to get a job as programmer to work 100% remote (i want to move to another country).
I just would like to hear your opinion, if my plan is very utopian, or possible at all.<p>Actually i work in Germany and have about 1 year experience as a web developer (perl, a bit JS).
I'm getting into Python now, because there aren't much perl jobs out there.<p>So in about 1 year, i'll try to get a remote job, but i don't see me being successfully in it.
What do you think are my chances?<p>For my little experience, i am not too bad imho.<p>Thank you very much for your answers
From my experience living in Asia and Europe I found it very hard to get a remote job (and I am freelancing with 11 years of experience). I had some remote positions but they always started out as being on site.<p>This aligns with anecdotes from friends and colleagues. Start working on site, show your worth go remote seems to be the sneaky way how a lot of people made the getting a remote job happening.<p>I recently moved to the US and I found US clients (or employers) are a lot more willing to hire someone remote. So your mileage may vary where you are.
