I'm Facing A Challenge Trying To Land IT Support Roles. Please Help � by privaldo: 3:06pm On Dec 11, 2023
Hi all, I've been looking for remote IT Support roles. However, all the open roles I've come across seem to only hire from within the US/UK/Canada. I've interviewed for three different roles but received rejection emails for all three. One mentioned that I was a good fit for the role but my location was an issue. If you've successfully landed a remote support role, could you please share your experience and any advice you may have?

Sidenote: I'm currently taking the Google IT Support professional certification and as well preparing for my CCNA and Comptia+ exams.

Sometimes it is not that you're not good for the job or your CV, portfolio, experience, GitHub profile cover letter are not perfect but the environment where you are living may be a block to getting the job. Sometimes, most of these European tech companies want developers from their region so whoever match what they require but the person is not living in the EU region will not be considered.
More so, there are thousands of applications submitted just for one role. Probably may not checking up to 100 applicants CV before dumping everything.
Tech job market is currently brutal at this period. We all see the news of laying off employees happening around European and American tech companies.

You can get lucky if a dev refers you to his boss or to someone
