How often do you see Europeans work remotely for US companies? Is it extremely rare in your experience?

  >Is it extremely rare in your experience? In my experience yes but I live in small country in western Europe that's never on the radar of recruiters from the US, unless they're looking for a holiday destination :). I never found US tech jobs open for remote candidates that were not some off-shore sweatshop kind of slave work looking to undercut the local US market wages with candidates willing to work longer hours for less pay than the local talent. The good US tech companies never put their crown jewels in the hands on remote workers from abroad they haven't already known before or gotten through some internal referral. I'm sure there are a few exceptions and glad to be proven wrong though but that's what the market looks like from my PoV.

    Got any solid devs to refer with good English? I need to hire someone and I’ve been dragging my feet: http://stackoverflow.com/jobs/517498/intertoob-scanner-builder-fullstack-engineer-carve-systems http://stackoverflow.com/jobs/517498/intertoob-scanner-build...

      Competitive pay?
    • bitexploder 5y ago
      xwdv, the comp range is listed on the job post and it would be straight salary with benefits for a US employee. [can't reply any deeper, just email careers@carvesystems.com and reference this discussion and I will find you].

      Looks really good, thanks for sharing, appreciate it. The timezone requirement is a shame though :(

        It's not a firm requirement, probably just need a bit of overlap with mountain time for logistical purposes. We have one person who works in Spain already.
