Apologies if this is a commonly repeated question but I don’t really know where to ask.
So right now I’m living in Germany but I’m from another EU country originally.I don’t speak the language which is probably the biggest obstacle to finding a remote job here.Anyway,I don’t intend to learn as I don’t intend to stay here long term.
I would like to find an English speaking remote job.I’m not sure how much country matters here,I’ve been thinking about something in the UK or,if it would be easier in an EU country,then Ireland.
I’ve been thinking about data entry mainly or something along those lines.For context I’m also a (starter) freelance software tester for half a year now and I’d also be happy to go somewhere with that,if possible.
Where should I look for openings?And is the UK or Ireland a viable choice?
Any help is appreciated,since I’m kind of feeling stuck now in general.
You won’t make a lot of money from Data Entry, all those things touted as remote even since before the pandemic like that, pay peanuts in the grand scheme of things, and it’s terrible time/effort:earnings ratio.
If you wanna be a digital nomad, make sure you excel in a job that can be remotely, and then either start an onsite job making yourself absolutely indispensable and go traveling, or get your own hustle going where you absolutely smash the hell out of it and take it with you.
If you don’t have skillset and confidence, Digital Nomading can very quickly turn from a fun time to absolute hell, where you’re stuck in a foreign country with limited rights (often just on a tourist visa/permit), far away from home, and nowhere to turn to or nothing to do.
