I am curious as to how developers and other career minded people source and keep remote jobs. I would like to ask remote job workers what their experience has been like getting and keeping remote work especially with different time zones, internet and other experiences.

If you are a remote job worker commenting on this thread, please do provide relevant information and include the following;

1. How long you have been doing remote work

Slightly over 12 months
2. Time Zone of Work/Nigerian Time
7AM-12AM (excluding side gigs)

3. Current Pay

$100-$200
4. Type ie permanent or temp worker
Freelancer

5. Duration of Work if temp work

6. Your Area of Specialization(Your line of work):

Copywriting and content writing
7. Remote Work sites you got your job:

Fiverr, then I've also gotten a number of connections off Twitter
8. Your Nigerian Internet Experience

Was a good till the turn of the year, it's been particularly poor since February
9. Recommendations for those looking for Remote Jobs


Use your social media tools wisely, remember they are tools and you should use them as such. Also, you'll do a lot of learning and unlearning, so never feel ashamed when you don't know something. Always try to learn more and read more about it.

Hi,

I understand you might be a startup but please, get a more convincing email. It doesn't really cost much to get a domain. While an email address doesn't necessarily match skills, it definitely indicates seriousness/dedication. And the absence of one is the first sign someone isn't registered. Now, only a very few people in diaspora would want to do such heavy projects with such a person. I could be wrong but being a 'diasporan' myself, I think I have a fair understanding of how skeptical we could be with such things.

Best of luck.

Re: Remote Work: Your Experiences As A Remote Worker by Isaacmacdon(m): 2:50pm On Apr 23, 2021
Now, I feel this thread could really bring out the opportunities of remote jobs.

One thing, due to the low trust environment we live in, I don't think people would be comfortable enough to dish out very vital information.

At the end, do your research. Stay up late to surf the Internet.

Get a f**King vpn and see that you've been living in darkness and the world indeed shutout Nigeria or africa.

Scammers shi. grin

Legit hustle pays, but you have to pay the price.....

1. More than 4 years
2. Different timezones, worked with UK, Indians, US, Australians. First they must know I'm a proud Nigerian, if they are unwilling to work with one then they should f*CK off with their money.
3. Depends on project, min $15 per hour.
4. Both temp and permanent. Currently on permanent with Automatic.
6. Software engineer
7. Hired, LinkedIn, Hubstaff talent, we work remotely, stackoverflow etc
8. Stable, been using MTN for a while.
9.If you are a Developer, build a lot of projects. Be able to defend your project. Clients will come knocking. Ignore those street peeps calling you Yahoo as long as you are legit
The last part grin. I'm surprised no one has spoken about this yet.

I've been working remotely for a year now and the experience so far has been a mixed one.
No doubt, it's more convenient working from home; navigating between work desk and your bed, not having to wake up early and dress for work,etc.

Apart from the boredom and sometimes not having a balance lifestyle between work and life, it's been a great experience.
what is your gig?
