How to Get a Remote or International Tech Job (Complete Guide)

The most common question I get is "How do I land a remote or international tech job?" In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact roadmap I would follow, from building core skills to the one thing you MUST do to get noticed by recruiters. This isn't just about resumes; it's about building a career that opens global doors.


In this video, we cover:


Why your first job should be local (and in-office).

How to build a "social presence" that gets you hired.

The right way to message recruiters so they actually reply.

How to prepare for modern tech interviews that go beyond LeetCode.

My personal story of failing a dream job interview and what it taught me.

This guide is for any software engineer or tech professional, from early-career to experienced, who wants to break into the remote or international job market. You'll learn the actionable steps to stand out, get your foot in the door, and ultimately land the job.
