9. Recommendations for those looking for Remote Jobs
LinkedIn, work on a small project and advertise on your github join a community. Study Algorithm and Data Structure, also build a small company and work on products, eventually someone will be intrested in your project if it has values. But for me coming up with Startup Ideas is hard for me, I only know how to come up with ideas for platforms or extending platforms and there is money there, but it takes alot of time to code.

I am an Architect. I design, I construct.
It hasn't been bad working remotely.

You need to keep improving on the gig you want to provide because the gig economy is hypercompetitive, participate in online community and improve your pitch/proposal-writing skill.

Working remotely is fun.

I am a web developer,
I get most of my clients via Fiverr and have been working remotely, full time for the past 13months.

It can quickly become overwhelming, as atimes I have more jobs than I can handle.

The pay is VERY GOOD, at least compared to the standard of living here in Nigeria. I have a BSc but would dare not leave freelance web development for even a level 12 government job.

Want to work remotely?
Be good at what you do before looking for jobs . Be VERY good. Once you’re good, you’ll need a few jobs to display on your portfolio and jobs will start flocking in.
