Ask HN: How did you get your telecommute job?
Hello HN!
How did you get your first telecommute job? Were you actively searching for one or did the company you work for allow you to work telecommute? What tips would you have for developers seeking telecommute work? There was already a post on HN earlier about how to maintain a telecommute job. However, how do you actually go about getting one?
Thanks for your responses!

- itazula 13y agoI applied for a system administration job with a company that had offices world-wide, but I started in the U.S. An opportunity came up within my company to provide sysadmin support in an AsiaPac timezone, and I took it! Trying to obtain a professional job in a foreign country can be difficult otherwise because most companies aren't willing to hire somebody who doesn't already have a work visa for that country.
