I get the same feeling. What's yours?

I was thinking remote as in any kind of remote. Isn't subcontracting the most popular choice here though? For instance - how would one get a remote job in US if they cannot be employed there because of visa restrictions?

Maybe I didn't express myself clearly enough - this is all about the practicality of starting remoting. I agree with your point of solving business problems - that is obvious and I am a quite a generalist (with certain preferences) when it comes to tech. I am just trying to be realistic here - I don't find it easy to find a job on site and my guess is finding a remote one is way more difficult with all the devs around the world from developing countries knocking down salaries. I thought most companies tend to hire with focus on certain experience?

You don't have your contact info on your profile.

No, this is a very legitimate question. I am an Eastern European and having spent 7 years in UK (and last two in London) I realized that all I do here is bleed huge amounts of money for rent. I want to get a remote job and move back to my homeland. This is all about maximizing my chances of getting such a job, because I understand that remote is rather competitive market with developers from developing countries knocking down salaries, etc. Just trying to be realistic.
