True, but the recruiter on the other hand should show more experience and cognition. The emails might refer to systems the recruiter doesn't understand, but the actual words make complete sense.

what btc-linked debit cards do you use if you don't mind me asking?

Given someone who is ready and responsible to work remotely, which would you prefer, office based or remote based? I feel as though writing off remote work due to the performance of someone not able to work remotely is a bit unfair.

I am full time remote, and the hours per day I can work range between a couple of hours and a dozen. So long as the work is done and the clients are happy, that's what matters. The main thing is self-discipline, having the self-discipline to get the work done and to provide top quality work. You have the flexibility to choose your best working space, working hours, and working style, so go and produce your best work.

Could you be specific? Are you talking about the US or another country?

That would be a great USP for a payment provider, sadly, most banks aren't interested in anything new.

Well in my case I put a massive amount of effort into the technical portion of my interview. I was given a week, as they knew how busy I was. I spent a good 8 hours on it, and went above and beyond. Instead of a simple working SPA, I produced a full working system with full UI, REST API, 100% coverage, rolling data import, containerisation and deployment scripts for all services, pseudo-branding, documentation, GitHub organisation with repo per service, and to top it off, deployed it to a $5 droplet and provided credentials.

This is what you'll be up against when interviewing for good remote companies. I work for a remote first company, not just a remote friendly company, so the competition really is stiff.

With the wage I went in for, it was a no brainer. Was hired days later, and it's been the best job I've had so far.

As a remote worker, you really do have to be a self-manager, you're trusted by your team – in the same way you trust your team – to get shit done.

Another thing I did was ace the interview. I went into it with the confidence to present myself as I knew myself, as I knew they didn't. I switched the interview around and interviewed them, and in the end, we were all laughing.

What I would say is "show, don't tell".

Or to get ready to buy when it does. :)

It always happens, but really, they're just trying to hook anyone they can. When it comes down to it, there is everyone, and they are the else.

FYI Service workers can intercept and modify requests.

Find remote work. You can work in solitude (as is natural) and collaborate asynchronously (as it should be).

Made the switch a year ago after moving from web developer to tech lead and having all the issues you mentioned. Now I'm just writing code again. Best decision ever.

Curious to know if this is the same every day?

Work remotely for a great company, other than scheduled meetings, work to my own time which tends to be split up to AM/PM and also, each day is a different schedule.

The lack of routine is great, I get to work and live at the same time, rather than feeling like my life is dominated by office hours.
