I received 50 rejections with zero interviews last month alone.

That’s what a Senior Software Engineer with 6 years of experience told me.

So I scheduled a 15 minutes call, asked him to share his screen and apply for jobs so I watch how he applies.

I noticed 3 major mistakes, and they are the most common mistakes you should stop making to land a remote job working from any where in the world:

1/3: Applying for non global remote roles

Most remote jobs have something called called regional restrictions. This means that they can’t hire someone from a different timezone or region even if they wanted to. They are limited by the laws of the country, or the structure of the company.

So even if you’re the best candidate, they won’t be able to hire you. 90% of the time, you’ll just get a generic rejection, and you’ll keep thinking you’re the problem.

You’re not.

Your location is just restricting you.

The only kinds of jobs or companies you should apply to are companies that are:

✅ Remote: Global ✅ Remote: Work from Anywhere
✅ Remote: EMEA (Double check the job description to confirm to your region)
