- kbob 15y agoI, for example, am a regular telecommuting employee of a large company in San Jose. Nominally, I'm in San Jose for one week every quarter, though it has been less than that lately. I spend a lot of time on the phone and on video conferences. PS: Nit. It's about 650 miles from Portland to SJ.
- devs1010 15y agoIf you don't mind my asking, I am curious if you got the job also while living remotely or did you live in northern California, got the job and then later moved out of state to work remotely? I'm currently out of state, looking to move back to California as its where I'm from so I'm wondering if there is a possibility for finding a job where I work remotely which would certainly make the move a lot smoother, already have a job there.
- kbob 15y agoSorry for the delayed reply. I lived in SJ from 1992-2001. I knew my current boss from that time. Sometime around 2006, while I was living here in Oregon, he emailed me and asked if I might be interested in doing X for him. I've gotten my last seven jobs through friends. The last two have been since I moved to Oregon. The last time I applied for a job where I didn't know anybody was 1985.
