Ask HN: How do you apply for remote developer roles?

I get most of work through networking. Otherwise, I've found Reddit and Facebook to be extremely helpful. Far more than LinkedIn or dedicated job boards.

How do I go about?

I introduce myself, mention relevant experience, list references. And, mind you, I'm not a dedicated opensource contributor. Hell, even my public GitHub repo is dated and not that rich. Again, my target market are not tech companies per se. I prefer being the tech guy in a non-tech company.

Mis dos centavos.

I think that to have a good opportunity to get hired for a remote role you should have a very good personal brand, your code quality and your contributions to open source projects. Some times I receive job offers from people that looks at something that I made on GitHub.

So I can say: "My tactics is to love what I do, share knowledge with others and contribute to open source projects"
