Example journey · International & remote-first engineers
Remote role with a US or EU company
For strong engineers whose applications to remote US and EU roles go unanswered.
- Starting point
- Experienced engineer outside the US and EU
- Goal
- Full-time remote engineer for an international company
- Typical length
- 6–10 weeks
The challenge
Applications disappear, interviews across time zones are hard to schedule, and contractor vs. employee offers are confusing.
What we do together
- Resume and LinkedIn in the format US and EU recruiters expect
- Outreach to remote-first companies that really hire in your region
- Communication coaching for live, English-language rounds
- Time-zone-aware scheduling through the Interview Desk
- Help comparing contractor, employer-of-record and employee offers
What we aim for
Interviews with companies that hire remotely in your region, and an offer you understand fully.
